    no problem! they produce this latex sap naturally — my umbrella plant does something similar as an example.

      i’m highly allergic to latex and i’m terrified of this happening as i have a sweet and sour baby rubber plant … it’s one of my favs i need advice lol

      If you are highly allergic, is it worth the cumulative exposure and the risk?

    Im not sure if it will trigger you, I suggest googling! Also you can wear gloves when repotting and that will help.
