Poison Ivy resin/sap removal?

It appears that some of my tools have the resin from poison ivy on them. I keep getting exposed to the plants even when I'm not in the area where I know them to be.

My problem is I don't know which of my many tools have the problem or how to remove it from electrical powered tools.

I would think that hot soapy water would eliminate the resin but soaking one's electrical tools in water is not the smartest thing to do.

How do I eliminate my itchy problem?
