Hello people! Congratulations for the great knowledge base you have!

I am interested in contact poisons. Are there any good recipes / tutorials for making contact poison substances at home (easy to obtain ingredients, no need of a lab, etc) ?
I know about plant irritants like urushiol (contained in poison ivy and poison oak) but I do no thave access to those plants since I live in Europe. They all seem exotic to me.
And yes, I know nettle but this what often happens to be my breakfast (this is not a joke) :)
I am interested in blistering agents, severe irritants or other contact poisons that could temporaly disable, cripple, disfigure or (eventually) kill a grown human or a large animal.
I searched the forum and I read that there is a tutorial on making mustard gas (which imho is a rather effective contact poison) from anti-freeze. Unfortunately, I couldn't find the tutorial in the Archive section (maybe it's the curse of the noob :) )
Could somebody send me a link to it?
I would be very grateful if you tell me the names of some good books/tutorials/recipes dealing with contact poisons.
Thanks!
