    Laundry Detergent is it Concentrated?
    Came across 2 / 1 Gallon Jugs of Liquid Laundry Detergent.. One of those forgotten purchases shoved to the back of the shelf.. My guess , it was a deal that couldn't be passed up.. by the way they were left behind by the Previous Home Owner.. lol..

    My Query is 2 Part , How to determine if it's a concentrated blend and if so what would be a safe measurement?

    Isn't there a label on it? If not, how do you know it's laundry detergent?

    Laundry detergent, as sold, is rarely concentrated; what does it say on the label how much to add per load. If you are in doubt, do not use it.

    Maybe that's why they left it at the house. I wouldn't use it.

    Does say Laundry Soap on the label, kind of fancy one at that but very non descriptive.. Which made me wonder if it was concentrated..

    Toss it. It was probably left there for a reason. I know I wouldn't use it.
