Baloh
Baloh (pronounce as Ba-loh) a type of palm tree species. This tree gain its reputation among the Bijagoi due to its special natural characteristic of the fruits - if contacted to the skin it exert allergic reaction that can't be detected by the brain. Scrubbing it won't get the itchy reaction away and no matter hard even until the skin bleed its still itchy. The mind is being tricked and doesn't know where exactly the itchiness location no matter where you scrub it.
