    Yesterday when I was at the $ store, I saw that they had ____ Oil Soap in the cleaning products isle. It wasn't "Murphy" and even though I repeated it three times, the name escapes me. I have no idea how much one normally pays for Murphy, but it'd be interesting to see if this $ store stuff works, too.
    However, a lot of $ store products are diluted, so that may be a problem. I did notice that the product read "Made in Canada" and also had an Est. date circa earlier this century. Just thought I'd share.

    There's an entomologist that recommends a solution of dish soap, alcohol and suspended DE. (No, I don't think that is the solution to our difficult problem but since we're talking soap.) I don't know but I suppose if you hit bugs directly with even some dish soaps, you might also kill them as well as with the proven Murphy's Oil Soap.

    I don't think Angie is in Canada for her to try this other brand of oil soap. But perhaps she can experiment with garden variety dish soap. For posterity, Angie, if you are reading this.
