Calcium hypochlorite is a powerful water and household disinfectant. It is inexpensive. One pound of this pool shock can disinfect over 10 thousand gallons of water for under $15. In this video, we talk about how to use and safely store this valuable prepper tool.
Calcium hypochlorite or pool shock is much less expensive purchased in larger quantities. However, YOU DO NOT NEED MUCH of this to take care of all of your needs. I purchased the box of 24 and shared it with my friends and neighbors. That means that it was about $4 a package instead of $15. And it means that my friends all have some in their own homes.
