Cleaning s/h water jerry cans

Yummy, squaddies have been pissing in those for years.

Clean it with fire


To steralise them stick 10 Milton tablets in each one (nice and concentrated) and fill up with hot water. Leave for 24 hours and it should be good to go.

I've read a few different articles on these containers though (as I was offered a load at a very good price when I had my store open) and all state that you shouldn't really use them for drinking water unless you have literally no other options (probably cause many of them have been used as toilets previously)
