This is kind of strange sounding, but I know that some fraternities use dish soap to make foam for "foam parties"... basically they make a LOT of bubbles and fill the dance floor with them.

Pretreat oily/greasy stains in laundry- as well as carpet (mentioned earlier).
I have heard that DAWN kills fleas- but have never tried it.
I have some wasp/ bee traps that attract bees and wasps with a fruit juice or soda. You add dish soap to the juice so it coats their wings and they cannot fly back out of the trap.
