IMPORTANT: Shor-Line shares your commitment to health and safety. This information is intended help protect your
animals, as well as, safeguard your investment.
• Bleaches can be harmful to animals. Bleaches can react with acids and release chlorine gas that is highly toxic.
• Because of its strong corrosive and toxic properties, bleach is diluted with water. The solution’s potency (shelf-life)
quickly degrades as the active chlorine dissipates with water. Animal care professionals, therefore, cannot know
with certainty how effective the bleach solution is over time without implementing a formal monitoring system.
• If chemical deodorizers, disinfectants, or sanitizers are used, protect your animals from respiratory problems and
infections by using clean water to wash residue from all surfaces and dry thoroughly.
• Clorox
