Y’all are blowing up my phone about the dawn dish soap in my washer.
I add it to every load. It’s the best stain remover EVER. I just drizzle in on the bottom [I’ve never added too much] Yes, I still do laundry detergent.
NO IT HAS NEVER CAUSED SUDS TO GO ALL OVER THE PLACE. 👏🏼
It literally takes every stain out of clothing. I’ll put it right on a stain too.
Must express something to keep getting my recipes.... Thank you
