Hi Bob,
I was reading about how people use bleach and water solution in a spray bottle around their dump valves and sewer connections and offer this as an alternative that is more environmentally friendly and less odor for this purpose. But then again I would rather smell bleach than #2.
The small bottles sold in the grocery store fit on the shelves of our refrigerator and vanity easier than a gallon of bleach.
I would not advocate putting it up you nose. However, my Dentist has had me do the mouth wash (morning, noon and night) after a procedure.
I agree there are no universal cure all's and this was not meant to be the proverbial cure all. Just some helpful hints and suggestions that I was not aware of. I surmised that others may not either sot therefore the posting.
