The raw chemical, yes - it is toxic and corrosive, but it's so unpleasant that the squirrel is unlikely to sample it. However the granular form does seem to emit a vapour or fine dust that could harm a creature that can't escape.
In water at swimming-pool dilution, probably not. The animal may well smell or taste it more sensitively than we could, so simply not drink enough to be harmed.
Free Chlorine is the Chlorine which is free to do its work in the pool, as opposed to Combined Chlorine which is chlorine that has combined with contaminants and is tied up and ineffective as a sanitizer in the pool. Sometimes you will see it abbreviated as FAC, which stands for Free Available Chlorine.
Have you actually added liquid chlorine to the pool?
A Salt water pool is a chlorine pool. The difference is that in the case of a saltwater pool there is a chlorinater fited inline that converts the salt into chlorine automaticaly, Meaning that you don't have to purchace any chlorine to keep up chlorine levels.
You do not measure the Chlorine in a Baquacil pool because they are incompatible.
normally when there is no reading for chlorine means that you need it, put 1 gallon of liquid shock in your pool. that will raise the chlorine level, cheryl
Sure but it is not the same strength as pool chlorine. It can also contain metals that can stain you pool surface.
Yes. It could kill them.
Yes, chlorine can hurt a dogs skin. Full strength would be harmful, but the diluted clorine in a swimming pool wouldn't. A dog's skin isn't that much different than a human's.
No nothing to worry about I have trees at the down hill side of pool and they cop heaps of chlorine water and are thriving.
Not hurt the pool but it can inhibit chlorine from sanitizing properly in high amounts. If its to high just drain some water out and refill with fresh.
Chlorine is usually kept in the pool at all times in the form of a tablet, if you mean the chlorine shock treatment which is a poweder that dissloves into the pool, I'd give it anywhere from 30 minutes to a day, depending on how much powder you've used to how many tablets are currently in the pool. Chlorine won't necessarily hurt you, since we swim in pools with it all the time, but it can burn your olfactory senses.
Chlorine is used as a sanitizer for pools, not a fertilizer for plant. It kills things, like bacteria. Chlorine is a chemical and will kill, or at best, hurt plant and trees. Never just dump your pool water on or near plants and trees. Go to: www.clean-pool-and-spa.com/swimming-pool-maintenance-tips.html for more info.
sure. it won't hurt you, if that's what you're asking. if anything, the chlorine will clean the wound.

I wouldn't let the kids play with it. Seriously, tho, it probably wasn't diseased; it just fell in and drowned. But even if it were sick, there aren't many, if any, diseases that can pass from squirrel to human, and the chlorine or other sanitizers in the pool will take care of any organic matter that entered the pool from the rodent.
Thiosulfate will neutralize chlorine. Buy it at a pool store.
