Ive tried it. but i dont know if it works or not. I couldnt find a way of keeping it in bed, Every morning it was off the bed and in between the side of the bed and the sheet where it tucks under.   :P

I do know that a lot of people do use soap and say that it works.  :)

Hmmmm. Not sure what to say about that other than it would make the bed smell nice lol. There is usually a basis behind the old wives tales, so I'd be interested to hear the theory behind this one.

One thing for sure is that it certainly won't hurt to try it! I will be interested to read if anyone has tried it 🐸
