What kind of reaction can people have?

 

the wood has A toxin that can build up in your system. some people will work all there life and not become susceptible to it, other people have a reaction after 5 mins. causes a really nasty rash with ant area that comes in contact with the wood( such as saw dust , picking the logs/brash up, etc..)that can last a couple of days.
