I have a high concentration of sulphur reducing bacteria and iron
reducing bacteria in my well. I used a bottle of javex to shock it
last time and it didnt' do much for the smell. Can I shock a well with
chlorine instead ? Would that work better at killing the bacteria ?
Is chlorine much stronger then javex ?
Thanks.

I don't know much about it, except that you want to keep bleach away from
your pump.

You will get used to the smell. Well, I did; my wife still hasn't.
