"If you love wealth more than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, depart from us in peace. We ask not your counsel nor your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you. May your chains rest lightly upon you and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen."
-- Samuel Adams
You would be better to treat before. Trying to kill all the things that might grow after is no fun.Originally Posted by Bowtie
I see you running, tell me what your running from
Nobody's coming, what ya do that was so wrong.
treat before you store, or as you store. Chlorine bleach, unscented. So many drops per gallon. I've even used no additional bleach before and the water has never smelled or tasted bad after 6 months.
Again, the water I store is for general usage, if I need to use it for cooking or drinking, I'll most likely boil it before use if possible just to be sure.
