This is an easy DIY hack one can do it in 5 minutes.
Supplies
Sealing tape
Masking tape (optional)
scissors
ruler
scale
pencil
Step 1: Stop Panic Buying
Step 2: Product Obsolescence
Step 3: Measuring Cylinder
I used an empty bottle to measre the liquid soap.
As it is cylindrical, take the radius and height to calculate the volume.
From study, CDC recommends using 0.5-0.7 ml.
But the dispenser was giving almost double.
So, the liquid soap goes wasted unnecessarily. And to wash of the glycerin, more water will be wasted.
Step 4: Tape the Neck
To prevent it from full range of motion, Cut and place the masking tape.
On that, place the sealing tape mutliple rounds.
Before taping it check and measure if the amount of liquid soap is suffiient.

The left one is before and the right one is after taping.
The results show, its almost half.
