Letter Re: Cleanliness–Maximize Your Productivity and Protect Your Investment

James,
Please remind your readers that there are two bars of soap that you should always keep a good supply stocked:

The first is Lava hand soap ^[1]. Lava bar soap will lather up even in cold salt water – so then there are no excuses that you can’t “clean up”.

The second bar of soap is Fels-Naptha laundry soap ^[2]. Fels-Naptha bar soap is so very important because it will lift urushiol from the skin when you get into a poison patch and keeps it suspended long enough to wash it from your skin and clothes too. You will find it in the laundry detergent isle of your local grocery store.

Due to my dog always getting into everything to “check it out” I never know when she has been into the poison oak, so I bath with it regularly to prevent outbreaks of poison oak on my skin. A web search on “uses for Fels-Naptha soap” will give you many uses that most of us never even thought of.
