Dawn "Dish" Liquid, the Lie (31 Viewers)

Dawn + Hydrogen Peroxide + baking soda in equal parts to make a paste is the best way I have found to get rid of Skunk Spray on a dog.

And Dawn has to be good stuff because they use it to clean baby ducks and everyone loves baby ducks.
 
i typically use about half a cup in a gallon bucket, fill up half way ( i figure the more dawn in water mix, the better ) or just a bit more.

When filling, use hose on half or you will end up with 3/4 suds and 1/4 mix lol. you want more mix than suds ( but suds work also )

Since i have a slight sadistic attitude toward fire ants, i usually stir up the mound and poke several deep holes, wait for them to swarm.

Pour.

Lawn chair to view the carnage.

I usually do two buckets like that. Sometimes ill even come behind the pour with hose/jet nozzle and suds up the ground as much as i can.

Oh and it does not harm your lawn either.
You can also mix Dawn, Table Salt and Vinegar to make one hell of a non-toxic weed killer. I spray the cobblestones at my house with that mix and it works like a charm.

I typically use 1 Gallon of Vinegar, Half Cup of Salt, and half a bottle of Dawn and just mix them in a weed sprayer. Add more salt as needed if the weeds come back quicker that usual. An application should last you about 3-4 months depending on the amount of rain received.
 
I'm aware of Dawn's power - is very tough on grease. I know we have some under the sink but it's not a primary use product for us. I'm sure we have some allegedly natural, bougie crap that the wife buys.
 
Buyer beware, I've always used Dawn for the dishes, the apple scent, IDK, guess I like green. Anyway, I keep a large bottle under the sink and fill a pump on the counter. Imagine my surprise when I grabbed the bottle and noticed that I wasn't using Dish soap but antibacterial hand soap, not the grease fighting, baby duck cleaning stuff that's it's known for. What the hell Dawn?
Yeah, gotta read closely. (from the interwebz)

This is my point, I bet the dawn hand soap under my sink doesn't have even one of those tricks up it's lying sleeve.
 
there is no toxin that kills the ant.

they suffocate. ( which, imo, is deserving )
I feel that way about horseflies. Their lives are about dealing misery so if their death is misery, so be it.

I'm usually very live and let live, but not with regard to yellow jackets or horseflies. **** on 'em

Oh wait, will peeing on them work??? :hihi:
