    Gardeners Hand-wash: Pour a quarter cup of Hydrogen Peroxide into your dish soap bottle and it will foam out the dirt from under your nails. It helps if the bottle is opaque as hydrogen peroxide brakes down under light. It also keep your dish rags from being stinky.
    I use the lab grade stuff, the stuff at the grocery is about 3% or less, and it will oxidize living skin cells, but it you cut it 1/1 with water it will not. The 3 % retail product has stabilizers in it making it toxic. Hydrogen peroxided is not recommended for anything other then to clean with any more, as it can cause scaring. I use it to sterilize my cutting tools or what ever else I am using to prune my maples with, but I am using it at 6% not the 3. Once you get the benefits of hydrogen peroxide you will never go back to using chlorine.<click it<
