Oops, I meant TABLETS, those chalky little pills in the foil wrapper. I haven't actually heard of the drops.
If you read the instructions, you might get scared. They say to use rubber gloves, a face shield, and all types of precautionary mumbo jumbo while handling the tablets. My answer was to not handle them but just cut a hole in the foil (and YES, you will need a knife or scissors to cut them open unless your teeth are MUCH sharper then mine) and then simply drop them from the foil into your water.
And don't feed them to the fish!
Of course, I had to resist putting them in my eyes
(P.S. Hey, Alchemist2000, are you the guy that made me ride my bike out to the mines in BB?)

As best I can tell, both of these are a source of chlorine dioxide, the the type of chlorine used in municipal water treatment. Seems like the tablets might be less trouble to use.
