How much per 32 gal. trash can would fill that bill?
1 ts per 5 gallons.
Chlorine bleach evaporates quickly... "1 ts" won't do a whit and
within a couple hours it'll be like it was never there at all.
1 TS per 5 gallons is the USDA recommended amount to render clear water
safe for drinking.
According to a couple of sites I looked at, it's a half a teaspoon per 5
gallons. But I doubt whether doubling the dose would be a problem and I
wouldn't even bother to add any for such a small amount of water. I'd
worry more about mosquitos breeding in it so would use it quick sticks.
I got different answers too so picked one that made more sense to a storage
tank. It breaks down fairly fast.
Quick Sticks? Not familar with that. Fill me in?
