DAWN is also an excellent ant repellant. I've used it quite successfully in a house with animals I didn't want to expose to harsh chemicals or ant traps they might get into. Just applying the DAWN in areas they were getting in kept the ants away.

Thanks for all your awesome tips.

[@kennethcampbell599]

Dawn doesn't kill insects because it poisons them. Insects breathe through their skin. Dawn puts a film over the pores which seals them. The insects actually suffocate. That is why it is strong enough to kill spiders, too.

[@tropicalco2339]

The reason bugs are so prevalent because people kill the helpful bugs such as wasp, spiders, lacewing, etc. Just one of the 3 bugs listed could kill thousands of other unwanted bugs. Either way soap is better than toxic poison. Although the company who makes Dawn is toxic poison.

It only dries up what is exposed. The roots are alive as usual and the grass and weeds will be back in a short amount of time. You have got to stay after them and it soon becomes work but it will knock back the tops, but for short term only. You will tire of it quickly most likely.

Best Dawn comercial i have ever watched , you sold me

[@katdady67]

I've been using Dawn for years, to Break up the water retention in potting soils and regular old Top Soils. Most of the potting soils you buy, either have spagnum peat moss, Cocoa Coir or some type of pine bark mulch. A drop of Dawn in your watering can will break the surface tension allowing the water to penetrate the soil much quicker and evenly. Instead of running off or partially soaking your soil. Which can lead to unhealthy root system. I'm definitely going to try the other uses of this amazing multi application detergent. Thanks for the tips!

I use Dawn a lot. I mix tsp Dawn, 10 drops of spearmint essential oil, 10 drops of pepermint oil, 10 drop lavender oil.. Mix wirh 4 cups water. Spray around outside doors..windows. And inside heater vents. Spray in garage around walls. Spiders hate it...bugs hate it. If you have them coming in a particular area, add some to cotton balls..leave in those spots. Spray at least once a week during bug season. Get rid of spiders. Great for RV campers too. Have fleas on pet? Put dog in tub. As you are adding water, immediately Take Dawn lather up in dawn in your hand with some water. Put all the way around dogs neck. On outside of dogs ears and outside of dogs butt. Add some squirts to water. As you pour water from bath over dog, fleas run for cover to hide in dogs cavities.. Ears, eyes, nose, butt. They stay there till bath is over and then jump back out after bath is done. Using this method, fleas run right into dawn barrier you created around these areas..and die!!!!! I have watched this and it is crazy!!! A groomer told me about this. Last.. Clean pet urin on floors.. I use Dawn, Vinager and water. I also use it in my shower..sparklung clean.

Thank you for this video! I would like to add that if you work outside, I'm sure you know all about poison ivy, oak and sumac. I have learned that through avoidance, identification and wearing protective clothing are the best methods of not getting Dawn on your skin. Unfortunately, you come across situations where you just can't avoid it. Whether it be you are camping, playing with your pet or just happen to accidentally come across it, Dawn works wonders. All of the plants I mentioned have one thing in common and that is they all contain Urushiol Oil. Urushiol oil is what gets onto your skin that cause the rash. If you think that you hav come in contact with any plant that contains urushiol oil, make sure to take a warm shower and use plenty of Dawn to remove/strip the oil from your skin. Wash, rinse and repeat so that you get qll off of the oil off of your skin. Make sure to concentrate on washing the areas around your ankles, hands and forearms. I'm in my early 40's and I'm extremely allergic to poison ivy and the like. Knock on wood, by showering with Dawn, I haven't had an outbreak in over 15 years. Take care folks and I hope this helps you out! Peace

Dawn is awesome help. It is very concentrated/strong. If using on pets best to use very small amount, as it will severely dry out their skin (which causes itching) - and strips their fur of natural oils, making it dull.

TheSincererAlmond , I just saw this video in 2019 but thought I’d pass along that my husband’s doctor uses hydrogen peroxide as one of the natural things for my hubbys Stage IV cancer. You have to know what you’re doing, obviously. His doctor is an integrative, all-natural doctor.

Humpty Dumpty Love God Bless! I heard that hydrogen peroxide works for cancer. I’m a breast cancer survivor. Praying for you! 🙏🏼

[@lakelady185]

If you ever need to induce vomiting in your dog, hydrogen peroxide is your answer. Don't over do it. It doesn't take much. Suggest doing it in the tub. Don't get it in the dog's eyes or nose. They will be nervous so be calm and kind yourself. And that will help pooch stay calm. It is the foaming that brings whatever back up out of doggie's system where it doesn't belong. Once it is out poochie should be back to normal quickly. Make sure to cuddle, love and praise so they know they are not being punished. Don't cry, speak loudly or yell. Be loving. The way you want doctors and nurses to be with you when you are the patient. Talk to your veterinarian before using this procedure. It may not be the proper course of action for your dog. But my vet suggested it for mine and it worked great. The two otc remedies I always take with me wherever my pups go is hydrogen peroxide (cleaning wounds and vomiting) and benadryl (calming and supressing allergic reactions to bug stings). I even had a vet tell me to immediately dose with benedryl once after a snake bite because they were concerned I was so far from the doggie ER. And although I was rushing dog to them, they were concerned I was too far away and might need the extra few minutes the benadryl might buy. Doggie was fine and lived a long healthy life afterwards. But if snake bites, get in the car and drive straightaway to the vet. Call the vet while you're already on your way. Snake venom works very quickly and you have no time to spare. Don't bother getting dressed nice or combing your hair. If snake bites your dog leave immediately!

Thank You for this video. You take care of yourself and famiky.

I didn't know that about Dawn! Good things to know about Dawn!

[@upsidedowndog1256]

Your bug spray is great for finding tire punctures. Dawn works great in stagnant water to kill mosquito larvae, I use it in a drainage ditch near my house.

I always thought Calgon would be a preppers dream as an escape tool in SHTF moment. People always claimed 'Calgon take me away!'

[@pauljohnson4786]

Dish soap strips the natural oils from your pets coat and from your hair as well. Dish soap is pretty harsh on skin, hair and fur because it is intended to remove dish grease.

[@basilmiller931]

Wait they use dawn to clean animals up after an oil spills now as a constant sources of cleaning your animals I would agree with you. Oils in their coats and skin will come back.

[@davisbakara]

Once every 2-3 weeks

[@sylvester7320]

DAWN AND BABY OIL WORK GREAT TOGETHER IN A BATH, WITH BAKING SODA, TRUST ME TRY IT.

[@laurapotter7176]

you are so right.Dawn is the best.

[@jimrennison1]

Dawn dish soap is so good that I often wonder how the competitors even stay in business. Does anyone even buy them anymore? I'm 56 years old and I cannot remember buying any other brand of dish soap since I was maybe 20 years old. And I have a bottle of it everywhere; at the shop, in the garage and of course the kitchen.

[@saltlifegull4091]

Awesome video, omg, I'm going out to get Dawn now! These flies are driving me crazy. Spent too much at Tractor Supply on fly killer:(

[@lisaoliver4517]

A mixture of Dawn and hydrogen peroxide makes great stain remover for fabrics.

[@colleenkaralee2280]

Yup, I do a 4:1 ratio - a great pre-wash too.

I just used 12 gallons of Dawn to try & kill ticks in a yard. Suddenly this spring couldn’t go outside with out having ticks crawl up my legs. Pets also we’re bringing them inside! Praying this works. I’ll let you know.

[@BrknVeel]

dawn helps control fleas as well, makes a little more sense now seeing as how you used it for bugs. good info.

[@jlen82]

Sootch you can also rub Dawn on mosquito bites helps stop the itch.

[@jameshester3831]

Draws the poison out

[@updownstate]

THANK YOU for labeling your containers. Some of what I've seen unlabeled on YT is downright scary. Laziness and ignorance.

[@tarheelmp20]

FYI I would be cautious with using Dawn on your dog, you can strip the natural oils out of his coat and over dry their skin causing them to scratch excessively.

[@heknows5418]

Tarheel MP just put a spoonful of bacon grease in their food about once a week and it will keep their skin from drying. And dogs love the taste of bacon.

[@dahenry8888]

And he did say it's just for fleas so I'm sure nobody is using regularly...but thx for the tip

We Sooooo intend on trying that on our weeds-we got somekind of new weeds on our yard & i have no freakin idea where they come from-butomg does it choke the grass-we do have round up-but not like the american strong stuff-but since i see this video-i;m game on trying this--just gotta wait for the snow to bugger off &the mud dries up,lol.thanks for the info

[@uchibauki2515]

Will dawn kill the grass too?

[@sentinel8711]

no its not use Round-up

[@josephs8829]

Dawn does not kill weeds it merely helps the vinegar and salt stay on the plant and not run off .

This stuff is a real miracle of the petroleum age. Some day humanity may not have easy, affordable access to a substance like this.

[@shananagans5]

When I was in college I figured out it works well for laundry too. Just a little will do you. A little directly on stains works too. Maybe not as well as some stain removers but it works pretty well. It works particularly well on grease/oil stains. It is a good, all around cleaner but really, any dish washing liquid works. lol Just use very sparingly in a dishwasher. When I was a teen I filled the cup in the dishwasher and it really did create bubbles that covered the entire floor of the kitchen, just like on some old comedies. No exaggerating, there was a foot plus of bubbles covering the kitchen floor and the vent was blowing some up into the air. In my defense, it does say "dish washing liquid" on the bottle. As a bonus, mom never asked me to wash the dishes again. :)

[@leighannehammons9710]

shananagans5 put some downy in a spray bottle anytime anywhere you have more bubbles than you know what to do with a quick spray they're gone.. Wouldn't in my dishwasher but floor, even in recovery tanks when shampooing your carpet....

[@Backtanner]

When mixing the bug spray, add the water first and then the dawn. Keeps it from foaming up on ya!

[@stephengomes977]

When I have greasy/oily hands from working on my truck I put a little in my hands and rub my hands together in a “dry wash”. By this I mean only enough to take a majority of the dirt and grime off since I have well and septic. I don’t want any grease or oil residue going into my septic system. I use a paper towel to wipe off the residue from my hand then I wash them. This keeps my septic from getting contaminants in it and killing the beneficial bacteria.

[@MrCatfarmer]

One slight correction. Black widow spider is a “her” not him. Lol. I’ve been using Dawn for years to fight fleas. Recently here at the farm we had an outbreak of sand fleas. 14 of my barn cats died. My neighbor down the road lost five goats and two cows to fleas. All this in one week. I mixed up Dawn and water in my 3 gallon sprayer and sprayed the entire barn twice a day to start. Now it’s once a week until freezing season. Kittens all got a flea bath with Dawn. Adult cats got flea powder, mainly because I like the skin on my hands. No more deaths. Watch your pets gums. If they look to be turning white you have a problem. Should be pink. All white and you have a dead pet walking. One of my cats needed a blood transfusion. That cost $800 plus three days stay at the vets. I’ve had him 14 years and was the alpha cat in the barn. Because if the sudden outbreak of the fleas I haven’t been letting the barn cats out in the barnyard. I have so many cats because I rescue unwanted cats and find homes for most but the ones with lifelong medical needs or special needs have a home here.
