I have two 1000 litre storage tanks which collect water from the roof,
and I then use to water our vegatable garden.


....

The water will contain whatever is washed off the roof, including bird
droppings etc.



In my enthusiasm I missed the volume of your tanks and didn't ask if you
have a bird-roosting problem on the roof.
