None of my usual spots have any over winter. I’ve started just buying regular bleach from Walmart, but I’m skeptical about the bleach contents as it doesn’t seem to be raising FC as much as it should be based on searching the percentage online. Unfortunately none of the “cleaning” bleach bottles show a percentage on the label and even the MSDS sheets say “trade secret” on them (both Clorox and Great Value). So I assume only 3% even for the “concentrated” stuff.
i also don’t like not being able to tell what/if any other chemicals are in them. I avoid the obvious ones - splashless, fabric softening, etc, but even Clorox has “original concentrated bleach” and “original disinfecting concentrated bleach”. No idea what the difference is, other than the non disinfecting one says not to use it for disinfecting. Maybe they’re they same and are just marketed differently
