You must still be careful! I sprayed weedkiller, waited until the plants were brown and dry before I bagged them. I have a relatively mild case, but I still got PI. I suggest disposable plastic gloves, plastic bagging the evil weeds, and one of those medical nose/mouth masks. If you inhale any of the oils that are released when you handle the plants, PI attacks you from the inside out. Then it may show up anywhere no matter how quickly you bath or how hard you scrub.
