Something else that works really well, is mix some milk and plain yogurt together till creamy, then apply that to your hands and allow them to dry (with the milk mix on) and then the tree sap will just roll and crumble right off.

Cheap canned shaving cream works great too and is easier on the skin. My son's first job was working at a Christmas tree lot and that is how he got it off every night.
Easier on the skin as well as pocketbook.

WD40 has been known to cause seizures in some people when breathed ot in contact with skin.

WD40 works well, but can be a little ruff on the skin, especially any area of the face and head. You can use butter or cooking oil, anything greasy.

Thanks so much for this tip. This is so annoying and has always been a trick to remove. I'm all for making life a little easier!

Murphys Oil Soap will do the same, no chemicals, smells better and more cost effective!
