Peg on Jun 13, 2014Don't think so......edges of leaves are too ridgged and not shiny. Think that is a weed. I get them too! Wear gloves to pull any weed out to be safe.. http://www.wikihow.com/Identify-Poison-IvyHelpful Reply

Jennifer on Jun 13, 2014They look like wild strawberry plants. Do they eventually get little white flowers? If so, those flowers become strawberries!Helpful Reply

Stacey Stewart Savage on Jun 13, 2014It isn't any Poison Ivy I have ever seen(we are loaded with that) It does look like a wild strawberry but could be in the blackberry family(they do have prickles). They are both very invasive. Remember Poison Ivy two side leaves look like a right and left mitten with the center leaf that has two thumbs(almost always).Helpful Reply

KathrynElizabeth Etier on Jun 13, 2014It's dreaded all right, but it's not poison ivy. It looks like wild strawberry, which can't hurt you but can take over very quickly. We've got lots of it, and in some areas I just let it grow.Helpful Reply
