    I need help!!! do you have a suggestion for removing liquid dish soap from a swimming pool? I had some vandalism last night where 2 bottles of liquid soap was poured into my pool. It has all gathered in one location in the deep end of the pool. Is there a way to remove it without filling my filter, drain lines, pool and yard with soap bubbles? Or possibly a chemical to add?I don't know what to do please help!?!?!

    If you have a sand filter, you can put it in the waste mode and vacuum the soap out to the waste line.

    Chlorine is typically your best friend when trying to remove soap from the water. I would shock the pool using 4-5X the normal dosage.

    Put one teaspoon(only one) of vegetable oil in to a quart of water and spray across the pool.
