What can I use to stop my water butt smelling?

Our Advice:

Treat the water with Water Butt Treatment from Biotal. It is not harmful to plants and should eliminate the bad odour as well as clearing the water. It is worth emptying the butt once a year to wash it out and disinfect it with a weak solution of Jeyes Fluid.
