"Leaves of three, let it be!"
It's a vining plant, so when you pull it up, you'll find it's zig-zagged all over your yard! Likes to climb trees, too. Has a tear-shaped leaf with bright green coloring.
If you get any on ya, make sure you wash the area well with COLD water. Hot water will make the ushurol (sp?) oil absorb deeper into your pores. Wear disposable latex gloves and change your clothes when done weeding.

The leaves are compound with three almond-shaped leaflets, giving rise to the mnemonic, "Leaves of three, let it be". The berries (actually drupes) are a grayish-white color and are a favorite winter food of some birds.

"Leaves three, let it be" if you mean the plant. It can be either a shrub or a vine. If it's a vine, it will have hundreds of little rootlets coming off of it.
If you mean the skin condition, it will be a painfully itchy rash with lots of little blisters in it.
