Giant hogweed – the 'UK's most dangerous plant' – thrives in June and July.
. While both have toxic sap, burns from the larger variety tend to be much worse than that from the smaller kind.You should be OK if you come into contact with the outside of the plant. But if you accidentally come into contact with its dangerous sap? Well, that’s another story.says the Sheffield and Rotherham Wildlife TrustIt can take hours for the boils, rashes and redness to develop, so you might not know you’ve been exposed until it’s too late..
So you can see how people who are outside already, and who don’t know they’ve got the plant’s sap on their skin for hours, can stay out in the sun until the toxic chemicals cause permanent burns.“If you think you have been in contact with giant hogweed then it is important to wash the affected skin thoroughly and as soon as possible with soapy water,”If you need to get rid of hogweed from your garden, you should wear full protective clothing – or ask a specialist to come and remove it for you.
