It's funny how Hongers love Dettol
... but I too am addicted to Dettol products from the body wash, to soaps to the original. It started out in HK, I simply love the smell and it's very convenient living in NYC where all Chinatowns here sell Dettol everything for a bargain. $8USD for the huge body wash, $10USD for the biggest bottle of concentrate, $2 for each bar of soap. My favorite non-conventional uses are:
Put in a cup of Dettol to warm water and run my Jacuzzi for 15 mins to deodorize and as an antiseptic. It works better than most conventional methods including actual Jacuzzi cleaners. How do I know this? I ran my Jacuzzi with dishwasher liquid and Jacuzzi wash, it comes out clean most of the time, sometimes a little grime but not much but when I run it with Dettol, shit comes out, I mean you can really see stuff coming out, I have to practically filter the place where water gets sucked in. Since then, I've been using it every 3 months and I know my Jacuzzi pipes are clean.
The 2nd one is the BEST use! When in China during the warm months, us ABCs seem to have sweeter blood or something because I fucking get KILLED by mosquitoes. They love me, I mean I can get 100 bites just sitting on a bench for 10 mins. Have no fear, DETTOL is here! A small capful of dettol diluted in a gallon of warm water, put in a wash towel and apply liberally on your body and just simply let it dry. It's like a magical barrier! | |
