Get the inside of this clean? It has that horrid green stuff in it, it really needs coming off but how? Can i buy something to put in it that dissolves it?
I take the plate off a wallpaper steamer, put the hose inside the upside down container and run through a whole tank of water. Then I put a little water in the container, add about half a pound of rice, put the lid on, give it all a good old shake about, tip the rice and green water out and give it a thorough rinse.
Milton Sterilising Fluid or supermarkets own brand works wonders. If it's safe for babies, it will be safe for horses - we also use it to clean our gerbils bottles when they get algae in them. Just rinse well afterwards - nice and easy to use and effective.
