Yes, there are several common roots around the midwest that are poisonous to humans. Some of the more common ones include Poison Ivy, Poison Oak, and Sumac. Of these, Poison Ivy and Poison Oak are the most notorious as they can cause a skin rash if touched or eaten. All three can cause an annoying rash if contact is made with the sap from the leaves or the root system if chewed. They can also be lethal in some cases due to respiratory failure caused by ingesting the sap.
