Dr Jayne Kirk –
I’ve only just purchased these but so far they seem to work perfectly. I’m using them in water butts which collect rainwater from the roof of my horse’s field shelter – great for the purpose but in summer the water starts to smell after a while, and cleaning them out and refilling from a hose is neither pleasant nor eco-friendly. One tablet in each butt has stopped any smell and the water is clear; the horse seems quite impressed too.
Helen –
Thank you for your review. We’re glad to hear your horse is also impressed!
