Just an idea: Put a few *drops* of cooking oil into the bottom of the dishwasher and run it for a couple minutes. If you still see suds coming out, add a little more oil. This should help kill most of the suds. You may have to re-run this load of dishes if you overdo the oil, but it should get rid of the bubbles. Also you could try spraying a little cooking spray directly onto the bubbles. Should kill them dead. Then re-run your dishes.

I prefer liquid, the powder can clump plus I think the liquid is easier to control. There are lots of tablets and little gel packs out now some are a combination. Which works best depends on what type of things you are washing and what type of soil (food product) you are trying to remove. If you are having any specific problems read the containers. I buy two kinds a real cheap one and a real good one (Cascade Complete). Then depending on how much I have to wash and how dirty the dishes are I use whichever one I need. Honestly I use the cheap one most often. However I don't have any fine china or glasses. You have to be careful if you do, because some detergents will cause etching, the glasses will look cloudy but not the cloudy film that Jet Dry takes care of they will actually be lightly scratched. So I hope that was more helpful than confusing.

I don't that you can cut them back in any way, but I always resort to placing many towels around the edges of the dishwasher door (between the bottom of the door and the floor) to soak up the overflow before it has a chance to get all over my floors. Works well for me!

I would use a spray bottle with water or just keep wiping them up with towels. It'll stop eventually probably by the last rinse. Just don't use as much soap next time around.

Use a shop vac to remove as much as possible and then run dishwasher without soap to remove the rest.

Fabric softener such as downy will kill the suds imediately. Then re-wash with the right dishwasher detergant.
