I remember that commercial on our first Color TV

Sure do.

I have noticed at our hunt camp, that if you leave a bar of most kinds of soap , sitting . that mice will chew on it . However, a bar of Irish spring will sit untouched, They don;t seem to like it. old 243

Maybe mothballs are in the ingredients of Irish spring!
Wonder why mice chew on soap and do they get hiccups???

I've been using Lava since I was a kid. I like to scrub my hands after working out in the barn.

Wow, didn't know they still made Lava.....If that stuff doesn't scrub you clean, nothing will, lol

I prefer to wipe first and then wash my hands but to each their own.

Another user of Lava Soap.
Works great, lather up , scrub hands with small scrub brush and rinse, clean as a whistle.

I keep a bar in the river boat most of the time as well. If I know I’ve been in contact with poison ivy I wash with lava right in the river. It actually works good to dry up small patches of ivy after you get it too. I just make a lava/water paste and apply right to the rash. Also use after cleaning fish or cutting bait on the boat. Nothing better.

Must we teach these heathens everything?!
