  5. Reuse water within 2-3 days to eliminate the growth of bacteria and water odours. Don't constantly focus on the same area, move the sprinkler around the garden. Improve the quality of your grey water by using environmentally friendly haircare and body products and soaps.

  6. Bacteria takes longer to grow in moving water. If you can't use the water fast enough, try installing a grey water pump system or otherwise put in a bit of chlorine instead, but it's not advisable to use on a regular basis. Clean the tank on a regular basis to prevent bacteria from growing inside.Richiebello Professional tips provider.
