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.

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.

Mark Floors Bugs have feelings too. I bet you swat flys also 😳

It also works if your pets bring fleas into the home. At night set a small lamp in the floor and put a bowl of water mixed with dawn close to it. As they go to the light they go to a watery death. Depending on how bad they are depends on how many nights you need to do it.

In the ice pack if you add a little rubbing alcohol it won't freeze solid and makes a good ice pack for injuries also in your spray bottle for the bug spray if you put the water in the bottle first then add the Dawn soap it won't suds up so bad. Dawn dish soap has so many great uses. We always keep a big bottle on hand. Great for removing grease or oil from clothing too !

If you have any bugs in your kitchen or bathroom keep your sink clean ( no dirty dishes ) & put out 2 small containers filled with water & a few drops of blue dawn in 2-3 days the bugs will come to drink or come in contact with with the dawn water & die. No more bugs.

Allow this ol' Wyoming country boy to give you one of the best tick removal tips ever: Upon discovery of the embedded tick, place a single drop of Dawn on the tick, and watch Mother Nature take her course! The tick will withdraw his head from the skin and attempt to skedaddle, at which point you'll have a pair of tweezers with which to take him into custody. What you do with him after that is your business.

I've always seen that dawn was used to clean animals during oil spills since I was a kid. If it safe for them it safe for us! Great video.

Glad you got that black widow spider! We get them in the garage and around the wood pile. Thanks for the video.

Been thinking about”prepping” for a while now but we live in our 42ft RV with minimal storage space. These “sensible” tips are perfect! Thanks! We are fortunate to live in a great RV Park that allows us to have some container gardens! For everyone with pets, Regular dawn dish soap kills fleas almost immediately, repeat in 7 days and your flea problems will be reduced immediately!

Great video! My dad taught me a little trick that saved me when I had Poison Oak. Wash the area with Dawn, it dries up the oils and stops it from spreading. Worked perfectly!

in my opinion, he has the best survival channel on youtube

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.

Yes, Dawn is ulti-purpose. For cold water clean the "Resolve" brand has enzymes that eat away at some stains that the Dawn/H2O2 won't.

In this vein, laundry soap makes an excellent bug remover for your windshield. Dilute couple of tablespoons of liquid laundry soap into a spray bottle of water. Spray this mixture on your windshield before you put on fuel. Once you’re finished fueling, use the squeegee to clean your glass. Even stubborn, dried on bug will come right off.

I use the Dawn/vinegar solution for everyday cleaning. It even kills huge flies and the occasional large stray wasps that come in. Give a few good blasts and it’s down.

I heard that Dawn works great on dirty dishes as well!

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. :)

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!

paul's point was he probably straighted it out right before making the video knowing that the audience would take notice.. but he could also be that organized and clean regardless.. he's got Dawn! 😜

LD SW No disrespect to anyone, honestly, just felt like a tangential dig that day, but I might have just been hypersensitive that day.. 🤷‍♀️

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

thanks for sharing! love the bloopers

I use it for foaming hand soap. First go to Dollar tree get foaming hand wash use it up, don't waste it. Now that bottle is empty fill with water and put a few drops of dawn in. Put lid on and gentle mix. Boom, foaming hand wash. My son's favorite scent is green apple, dawn.

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

Excellent information, great video. Thanks for the share

Thank you for these great applications

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

Thanks for the share Great for washing walls

Thank You!!! I had just tried the AWESOME Original Dawn dish soap bee killer at about 2 tablespoon to about 1 gallon of water mix applied to an in ground hornets nest - they looked like the LARGER nasty yellow jacket type hornets not the tiny ones...anyway, made up lots of suds and went right into and over the bee hive access during the day light hours with just a quick direct steady pour over...checked on them and after several days of patience for the rest of stragglers to return...all gone :)

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

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

@Big Dummy They say the Urushiol oil is as hard to get off as grease.

@@blainwilson7937 That could very well be the case. I just base what I suggested on my on personal experience. From what I understand, it is best to shower with Dawn within a few hours after exposure if possible. I do know that it is used on animals that have been exposed to oil from oil spills, so I think it would work on humans just as well. I have worked on cars and you are right about grease being hard to remove! Take care George and thank you for the reply. Peace

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.

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.
