This sounds like a strange question, but can you tell me the process for making a new batch every time that you do? For example, are you literally juggling a huge bottle of bleach every morning and measuring out 1 tsp of bleach and then filling the glass rest of the way with water? It seems like there has to be a better way. Please share any tips at efficiency you can provide, as I know that convenience is the only way I am going to hold myself accountable to this routine.
Would it be possible to store the Germicidal bleach in a bottle such as this:
https://www.amazon.com/Amber-Boston-Round-Thick-Bottle/dp/B00OQQRW9G/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1473077150&sr=8-3&keywords=thick+pump+bottle
That is, a tightly sealed bottle with pump that will remain the purity of the bleach, and I can easily pump a bit out into a glass every day without having to juggle a large bottle of bleach.
OR, does the bleach need to stay in the provided manufacturer’s bottle? I am just trying to learn and make sure I do this the right way. I have spent the last month sporadically cleaning with Dakin’s solution (using adulterated Clorox with laundry additives - still very frustrated that Clorox decided to add crap into their product without making it clear) and now that I have a chance to talk to an expert, I want to make sure I am doing EVERYTHING right :)
It should be criminal what large companies and the media can get away with. They never have our best interest at heart, when more money is to be made.
Thanks
By doing it that way, you are not trying to balance a small measuring spoon or the cap with your fingers which can be burned by the stronger solution. This way you can just easily pour it into the glass container then put it under the tap for the water.
Even with the brown glass, that pump is not going to work. The problem is the low dilution is just not stable. It will degrade rapidly due to that instability. A slightly lower dilution is used to sanitize eggs before packaging and before the Dakins can drip off the bottom of the egg, it's no longer Dakins, it's turned to salt water.
The stronger solution bleach doesn't have to stay in its original bottle but be sure to label it for what it is.
