If you’re adventurous and live in an area with poison oak, Sumac or Ivy you can grind/mash a bunch of it up in a bucket with water and slather that resultant juice all over the sign. You’re going to want to avoid getting it on yourself like the plague and dump the leftovers in a hole and bury it (to keep the dog from getting it on themselves etc...).
Keep your eyes peeled for the scratching neighbor about 24-36 hours after next sign disappearance... The stuff is like radioactive waste, I’ve found myself getting spots of it from some tool or other weeks after a prior trip up prospecting in gold country. (much more careful about it since I got sensitized to it).
I was thinking of a poison oak/ivy mash for the sign.
Invisible and the perp would be obvious in a few days unless they’re like me and immune. But the immunity can go away any time. DH used to get it head to toe for weeks any time he touched but after months of drinking goat milk from goats who were fed poison oak he got immune. Now more than 15 years after the goat milk cure he may get a few spots of itch from tools, boots etc that got poison oak on them but it doesn’t spread.

Oh I so want to do that. Failing that though, you could just glove up and smear a handful of the leaves all over the sides where you’d pick it up. Agree with you though, that stuff’s a double edged sword.
i wouldn’t do any of that. my liberal brother is immune to that stuff. I have him come over and remove it, some times.
