It's Always Darkest Just Before the Dawn

This tip comes, believe it or not, from my 27-year-old son, Austin. He's a lot like me when it comes to collecting interesting information. Austin works in the oil and gas industry, and said all the guys wash their uniforms with original Dawn dish soap. Squirt a little on any greasy spots, and launder as usual. It's formulated to cut grease, after all. We don't end up with a lot of grease on our clothes, so it's hard for me to test it thoroughly. I would think you shouldn't use too much in case it bubbles out of your washing machine, and don't ever mix it with bleach.

I did a little digging online, and found out people are using it for all kinds of things -- to kill fleas, wash cars, wash grease off hands, clean floors, and even unclog toilets! Wow. I've got a bottle, and I'm going to look for some more uses for it. It's worth a try!
