I bought a gallon of low splash bleach about a year ago.

It was very viscous then.

Now it is very watery and the bleach smell is almost gone.

Does that version attract water over time?


Bleach does weaken over time.

"Bleach can expire. After a shelf life of six months, bleach starts to
degrade.


In fact it starts to degrade as soon as its made.

Even in its original bottle, bleach becomes 20 percent less effective as
each year goes by. Bleach mixed with water at a 1:9 ratio (i.e. 10 percent
bleach) is potent for about a day


Thats wrong too.

(it's more unstable in its diluted form)."


Everything you buy is in a diluted form.
