When we were young, my father would harvest the ferns in the backyard and boil them down. After straining, the juice was kept in a bottle and used to relieve the itchy rash from poison ivy. Just blot it on the rash using a cotton ball. It helped dry that rash up. My friends thought it was odd, but it worked.
