WATER FEEDER BOTTLE TROUBLE?

[Garn 0]

Bang some neet bleech in the bottle. Let is stand, swill it around. And the algae will soon come off. Just make sure you rinse the bottle out well. The method has never failed me, and it only takes a few minutes. Just remember to wash the bottle out well

Bottle brush, rice or sand. We always ended up using sand for our cups when i was plastering

just stick a small hanfull of rice in and a bit of vinegar shake well and it will be like new

Not sure of the safetys of it but the very best way I have done it is to oper un a shotgun cart and use the shot inside, fill a little water and it came of in a few shakes

I have a couple of coloured bottles for my mice (snakefood) and they still algae up!

Also breed birds and I add Avicleans to their water- I think its 5ml per litre. Prevents the growth of algae, mould and toxins building up in water containers. Try a bird shop or online vet site.

I use bottle brushes....

handful of small gravel, stick it in & shake it round with some water. i keep a little pile of stones next to the sink, and clean the bottles every few days. covering them works, just don't forget to top the bottles up regularly!
