I used to drain to the sanitary sewer but
got tired of running the hose that far (125 feet) so started just
back washing into my back yard grass. It doesn't leave any white
spot or anything to speak of and a minute with a garden hose takes
care of the brownish backwash material that is visible. Been doing
that for 10 years with no problems.



You are an IDIOT!! 10 years of toxic pool DE is harmful to humans,
wildlife, and pets. It is NOT untreated DE which is completely safe
for human consumption in water, and has been used for decades to
control hard shelled pests [roaches, ants, spiders, etc] in
agriculture, poultry and beef ranches. Pool DE that was left all
over my property and that of most of my Los Angeles neighbors
contributed to our rabbits cancer, the neighbors' rabbits epilepsy,
and untold health risks to the birds, hawks, and small animals that
are struggling to stay alive and thrive amidst LA's many pollutants.

Pool DE is NOT to be breathed or allowed to sit on the skin of any
living being! Safe disposal is ESSENTIAL and is not taken seriously
enough by pool owners. Do some research before you ASSume your 10
year old solution is harmless....

Um, Hello! The only difference in food grade DE and Pool DE is HEAT.
Heat rounds off the sharp edges of the fossil used in the pool system.

Natural DE fossils from the earth and edible when cleaned. Food grade
DE still has sharp edges. Used in livestock food to kill parasites.
You can eat it, too. I can understand people from LA lack some
research. Idiots!

Rabbits got cancer from pool DE? Got a link... I'm teachable. Rabbit
epilepsy? I need a source.

Don't get too worried , Oren , it's just another liberal screaming "I don't
understand what it is so it must be dangerous." . Let's hope to diety of
choice they never come across a description of the dangers of dihydrogen
monoxide DHMO , they'll try to ban that too ...
