I use the standard 5g jugs you can get from just about any LFS for my ATO containers. Apparently I left about 1/2” of water in one and it sat in a damp dark place and low and behold, mold. I’m fine tossing it out, or finding alternative uses for this particular jug, but figured I’d ask the group their opinion first.

Currently full of water with about 2 cups of vinegar mixed in...

Bleach/ water mix . Fill it to the top and cap it. Let it sit over night, next day, rinse it out completely and let dry. Should be good to use once dry.
