Can mixing detergents be harmful?

Asked by elbanditoroso (33158points) November 14th, 2018

Two separate issues:

1) I have two half-full dish soap bottles – one is a store brand and the other is Dawn. Each is half full. Is there any potential risk of bad chemical reaction if I poured them into the same bottle and got rid of the empty?

2) Same with liquid laundry detergent. I have one of those 2-gallon plastic containers of Tide (blue) and another container of the Costco bland clear stuff. I wouldn’t mind getting to a single container.

Is this dangerous?
