If you begin to experience any adverse reactions after touching, tasting, or eating a poison hemlock plant, seek immediate medical attention. To date, there is no antidote for hemlock poisoning. Treatment depends on the severity of your condition and your symptoms. Your doctor will also try to decontaminate your gastrointestinal tract in order to remove the hemlock from your system.
If you begin to experience seizures , you may be treated with antiseizure medication to lessen symptoms. You may also be treated with fluids intravenously to prevent dehydration and restore nutrient levels.
Removing this plant is the primary method of prevention. Experts recommend digging out small patches to remove them, being sure to remove the root. The fumes can trigger asthma symptoms and increase your risk of developing a reaction. You can also use herbicides to kill hemlock plants, but they are useless after hemlocks have sprouted flowers.
The best time to use herbicides is in the late fall or early spring, right as the plants begin to grow. Before interacting with poison hemlock plants, wear gloves, face masks, and other protective clothing to prevent an adverse reaction.

In one of my childhood homes we opened a locked cupboard and hundreds of packets of contraceptive pills where tucked in there. Ok it used to be a doctor's home. No biggie there. My friend's home was an over year old home built on bluestone blocks with barely any crawl space.
We pulled up some floorboards which had become rotted and loose and discovered ONE long leg bone! What the heck??? His family had lived there the whole entire life of the house. More worrisome; where's the rest of the body? So, kind friends, my landscape-architect friend is coming for Labor Day, but I'm still brainstorming, so what do you think of this?
