Using leaves as toilet paper 1

River birch, Ironwood, all species of Oak(except poison), Plaintain, Mullien, and others, make great wipes when you're on the go.
Now, usually I stuff a few towels into my back pocket, but these days those can be scarce/not needed.
And honestly it makes a great tool to solve a problem like let's say if you were naked or whatnot.
Being able to identify plants in your native habitat is going to be key. For instance, poison sumac verse an oak sappling and whatnot.
I have about 80% immunity to the ivy family.

See that is why I wouldn't do it. If I'd ever gotten hit by either plant I'm sure I'd be able to recognize it by now but I think I'm immune. Everyone I've talked to about it says I've spent too much time in the woods not to be.
But I wouldn't want to find out that's not the case by putting it in sensitive places.

All I meant is that I can see poison family from the farthest my eye can see, as well as friendly family.
The Trees are sort of the same it's easy to identify a plant by the structure of the leaf, and it does not take much study: only practice.

I'm a little upset it's been six weeks and still no bleach.
I've considered buying one of those cleaning toilet seats, whatever they're called, with the $1,200 stimulus. I mean, why wouldn't everyone do this? Would fix TP problems from here on out.

Awesome vibe, exploring nature naked while motherfuckers are sat inside for the global government clusterfuck, clothed, showered and deodorized with toxic chemicals and zombied out to booze and netflix. If you know your leaves wiping your ass with them is fine, certainly better than polluting the environment with paper trash, but it's kinda whatevs to me. I would use a bit of water and my hand and then give it a quick rinse.
HamHead, you seriously want to waste money out of the stimulus on that bullshit? Money has just gotten a whole fuck of a lot harder to come by. I'm prioritizing every cent.

Wish I was exploring nature naked but I can get some sun in the yard at least. Nice and sunny today. 
I agree the washing with water method is most effective. Mullein is pretty decent too.

I've avoided leaves as TP ever since I tried using skunk cabbage. The leaves are big so they look like they'd make decent TP, but an itchy butthole is a special kind of regret. I'm not sure any leaf is 100% safe and comfortable, so I would agree that washing with water is probably the best solution, though I usually carry a role of TP if I'm going camping.

Grab a stray cat off the streets at night to use as toilet paper. Then rinse and repeat each night.

I just have this thing about millions of parasites and bacteria entering my bunghole. Maybe if I washed in the river my whole life, but modern humans are going to get mad parasites with that method.
MULLEIN! That stuff is AWESOME. I even started growing it in my garden, and have been looking for wild patches.
