topic Bird Bath question.... in Community Chat https://community.qvc.com/t5/Community-Chat/Bird-Bath-question/m-p/183094#M77911 <P><STRONG>We live in Florida and will be leaving for a month. I have a birdbath and birds drink from it all day and take their baths. I change the water almost everyday. But, now it is getting more humid here and every 3 days or so the water gets "funky". I scrub it out and then put fresh water in it. Have a neighbor that will put fresh water in everyday but probably won't always notice the bad part (elderly lady with slight vision problem). I have heard there is something can be added to the water to keep the algae away. Someone said add bleach but I am afraid for the brids to drink it. Any suggestions would be helpful that I can pass on the neighbor. <IMG src="https://community.qvc.com/DesktopModules/ExactTarget/Controls/TextEditor/jscripts/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/img/001_rolleyes.gif" alt="{#emotions_dlg.rolleyes}" /></STRONG></P> Sun, 08 Apr 2012 01:21:26 GMT TheVillager 2012-04-08T01:21:26Z Bird Bath question.... https://community.qvc.com/t5/Community-Chat/Bird-Bath-question/m-p/183094#M77911 <P><STRONG>We live in Florida and will be leaving for a month.
