Are there rules for extracting poisons for creatures(such a familiar, pet you bought, or slain foe)? How about storing a poison the PC makes such as sleep venom? How about a poison that isn't a poison such as nagaji's spit venom?
Does a poison stay on for an endless duration, and is only removed when you purposefully wipe it off or when you attack? Does a character who sleeps in armor with poisoned armor spikes have the poison removed?
How does a contact poison react to being ingested? How about an injury poison?

Not really, no.
How about storing a poison the PC makes such as sleep venom?
Generally, you keep poison on your weapons, or in flasks and vials.
How about a poison that isn't a poison such as nagaji's spit venom?
It's stored in their glands. It likely loses its potency once removed.
Does a poison stay on for an endless duration, and is only removed when you purposefully wipe it off or when you attack?
Unless it says otherwise, their is no duration. Most poisons, as presented in the glossary, are alchemically refined and essentially last forever.
Does a character who sleeps in armor with poisoned armor spikes have the poison removed?
Not unless the GM rules as such.
How does a contact poison react to being ingested? How about an injury poison?
Utilizing a poison the wrong way generally produces no worthwhile results.

If you ingest a contact poison, it has made plenty of skin contact.

Guess I'll be stockpiling my extra venom for the days then.

Really? That doesn't make much sense to me. Can I ask where that's mentioned?
Thanks for the answers, of course.
How does it not make sense?
If contact poison doesn't make contact, if inhaled poison isn't absorbed into the lungs, if ingested poison isn't swallowed, if injury poison doesn't get in the blood stream, than it MAKE PERFECT SENSE that whatever effects they have are going to be negligible to the point of not needing to be represented by the rules (otherwise, they would be).
RD I think he is meaning that its hard to ingest with out some kind of contact.
An injury poison still enters your body, and a contact makes plenty of contact if you eat it. I suppose if you could eat without ever making contact or allowing it to enter your body it would make sense to me.
RD I think he is meaning that its hard to ingest with out some kind of contact.
Yeah, that.
What doesn't make sense, is how anyone thought I was implying otherwise. It's obviously understood by all that you can't ingest contact poison sans contact, and shouldn't need to be said at all.
God forbid that, that was necessary. The explanatory rules tomes that we would need for that kind of hilarious clarity would be bigger than houses.
It was the way you stated it. It sounded like No, when it was more of a yes to A, no to B thing. I was looking for a specific answer myself. Since I know nothing of digestion, I actually don't know if an ingested liquid ever reaches the bloodstream.
