TauntonBlizzard2013 Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 So I had my well water tested again.... tested positive for total coliform bacteria. Water guy guesses that’s either causing/contributing to the smell I’ve had. Options are shock the well or just go straight to a UV light. Any suggestions? Anyone have experuence with a UV light? Id hate to shock the well only for it to return in short order... even though I may be jumping the fun on a UV light Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The UV light sounds like a great solution. It’s a Brookstone germ free one, but I think they’re related. The calcium absorption pads I use are for Honeywell as well iirc.

Would sanitizing the well first be worth it? Maybe to avoid the light? I just feel whatever is causing the issue will come back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just feel whatever is causing the issue will come back We've done the chlorine-bleach shock a couple times, but for us the light is essential as the hay field uphill from the well gets animal dressing every year.

amarshall Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 Is there a historical record of Halloween events? I want to go nuclear on the town Facebook pages. I distinctly remember trick or treating in snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radarman Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 Is there anything worse than running out of candy on Halloween? Group of 15 kids comes marching down the driveway and I have like 12 chocolate bars left and find myself quickly scrambling around for protein bars and bags of sunflower seeds. Who's an a-hole? This guyyyy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HoarfrostHubb Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 We had a bunch of leftover candy. Not sure if weather related or just less kids in the hood. Plus a lot of our town goes to downtown Hubb now. Lame Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RUNNAWAYICEBERG Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 We’ve had another guy spotted in the Bury along the Housatonic. They appear pretty frequently in the fall. Must be traveling down the river looking for food before winter. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone goes down into town where the homes are closer together. When we lived on Perley Brook in Fort Kent, we'd get upwards of 200 ToT'ers, with carloads rolling in from Frenchville and Madawaska. Moved to back settlement, might see 2-3 neighbor kids. In Gardiner we'd get the 6-7 kids on our 6-home cul-de-sac road, and we've gone 22 Halloweens at our present location without a single visit.
