Hi

 

We aren’t as diligent as that but fresh water every day is important. I’d be interested in others opinions on this too.

Hi COGers,
 
Can I have some advise please?
 
I read in the Sunday Canberra Times 'Relax' supplement that bird baths should be cleaned and disinfected with a weak bleach solution and then, after rinsing out and placing in the sun to thoroughly dry for a while, they are safe to replenish and use for birds again.
 
Is this regime OK by COG standards?
 
Please can I have some guidance before I do this.
 
Thanks,
Trish Munro
