No but if you put a lot in it will make suds and they will come out all over the floor! Just put in a couple of drops.

No. You get suds all over the floor and while it won't ruin the dishwasher, you'll have a horrible mess in the kitchen. Machine detergent exists because it is formulated for the machine. Use that or wash them by hand.

This is not advisable. There are no suds suppressors in ahnd dish detergents. If you do put it into a dish washer - you will likely get a mess inside the dishwasher!

You can cause it to overflow from the suds in regular detergent. Invest in even the cheapest brand at Wal*Mart and keep you d/w in good working condition, if you value it and the ability to clean your dishes, without a big mess in the kitchen.

No!!! My retarded ex husband did that, and the kitchen filled up with suds. He used Dawn. Don't ever do that.
