I have some and am not exactly sure what I want to do with them...
I have seen that they can be boiled to create a concentrate and if added with some water to a foaming soap dispenser can be used as a hand soap.
Can I add something like bee pollen and or oatmeal to the boiling process to give the concentrate more benefits??
Or can any one give me some suggestions for other additives?

I don't use them as the extract can create a hazardous environment for fish in lakes and streams from the run off.
You would need a preservative if you add anything like bee pollen or oatmeal. Both are perfect bug food for germs, mold and bacteria to grow.
