You can use old fashioned Fels-Naptha laundry soap for many uses. It can be used as a stain remover, to wash off poison ivy residue. It can also be used as a general cleaner for floors, bathrooms and showers. It can also be dissolved in water and sprayed as an insecticide in the garden.
My dad used to cut the grass with out a shirt and come in covered w/chigger bites - hopped in the shower w/Fels Naptha and fit as can be in the morning!
Ahhhh the memories, especially about poison ivy!!! My mother would scrub me with Fels then powder me with corn starch to control the itch. It worked everytime. I never thought to use it for the garden, thanks, I'm soaking a bar as we "speak". Fran, CT
