What do you use?

I generally opt for BLEACH and only bleach...But after a slight mishap, let's just say that this Peanut is staying away from the bleach for a while...

WHAT ELSE can I use???

Bleach = bad.
It can cause really bad health problems because it kills all the good bacteria in your body. And what ever you do never ever ever go around it if you are pregnant!

The thing is, oxyclean doens't kill germs!

Yes. but if you really need to kill germs, dilute the smallest amount of bleach in a ton of water and it will do the trick. I really only do this when I cook with raw chicken.

Listen, don't be scared, from now on stay just away (I used to use bleach all the time). I'm a health nut and did much research. You know the saying you are what you eat? Well, that isn't totally true. You are what you digest and you digest zero when you have bleach in your system. Too much for me to go into here.

What do you use in your pool instead of chlorine?

I forget the name. I'll get it for you. It's great! No chlorine smell etc and the intestinal flora is in tip top shape!

I'd be interested...Could you FM me or tell me where I could find some more specific info?

I'll dig up my old books etc for you.
Do research into people and companies that deal with intestinal problems or are health crazy related. Regular research will not give you too much because scientists etc have to protect their industry.

Re: Those who are super clean freaks...

Probably not, as long as she doesn't have a habit of drinking toilet water!

Probably not. It becomes dangerous when you handle it. Those tablets are water soluble thus should be fine. Just don't mix with ammonia!

Re: Those who are super clean freaks...

BTW - this is a quote from a scientist that deals with bleach.

If you think the warnings on a bleach bottle are scary, you should check out a material safety data sheet for chlorine gas.

YES but they are the tablets that 'clean with every flush' so technically they uh, WILL BE MIXING WITH AMMONIA if you know what I mean...

Should she pee and run? Hold her nose? I'm worried about her safety now!

I know, that's why I worded it that way! I don't know that answer, sorry. I'm not an expert in pregnant pee! j/k

What I do know is bleach is bad. I have seen it wreak havoc on peoples digestive track by only taking a dip in the pool. BTW-after swimming in a pool you might consider taking some digestive enzymes to get things back on track.
