I forget, isn't there some way to get rid of the black moldy cruds in
old water bottles? Vinegar? Baking soda? Does anybody remember? Thanks. |

black moldy crud in old water bottle
I forget, isn't there some way to get rid of the black moldy cruds in
old water bottles? Vinegar? Baking soda? Does anybody remember? Hydrogen peroxide, with some mechanical scrubbing works fine. btw, this 'black fungus' was found in city-bottled water here, and found harmless. rms |

Bleach is generally good at killing everything. May leave an aftertaste in some polymers, but a lemon juice rinse may relieve that (in my experience). -- Tom Sherman - 42.435731,-83.985007 LOCAL CACTUS EATS CYCLIST - datakoll bleech, then I find a bit of mouthwash with some water to add some volume, shake and rinse out: ususally gets rid of the crap and the bleech aftertaste |

mold doesn't adhere readily to polyethylene, so usually a bottle brush
and some soapy water will do the job. - - Compliments of: "Your Friendly Neighborhood Wheelman" If you want to E-mail me use: ChrisZCorner "at" webtv "dot" net My website: http://geocities.com/czcorner |
