    I have a few bubbles left in my dishwasher, help?
    Okay, so, today I had mindlessly put dawn dish soap in my dishwasher and I've managed to remove a great deal of the bubbles but I still have a few remaining and I don't know if it's safe to try to run them out or what. What should I do? And please respond ASAP.

    Thank you,

    Throw in one quarter cup liquid fabric softener and run the cycle - it'll knock down all the suds and clear out the dishwashing soap.

    I actually realized I had done the same thing when my dogs appeared in the livingroom, covered with foam! It's an old wives' remedy... but it works.

    Boy, did that bring back memories! My daughter once thew a spoon she'd used to mix soap powder and water to make "snow" for a diorama into the dishwasher. We had suds everywhere! After I'd used a shovel to get most of them into the sink and down the drain, I used the shop vac to suck up what was left in the dishwasher. Then I ran the machine empty once to make sure all the soap was gone.

    Hope this works for you as well as it did for me!
