Get a life straw they should be available locally and work mint
Any idea where you got it? Giardia I mean
Not 100% sure if it's Giardia or campo.. If Giardia .. Urewera... Been thinking about water purification for a while though, since I found 3 dead swallows in the hut tank, on the last day.....Quote:

Anyone game to give these a try?
Or you could save even more money and just use a couple of drops of common household bleach in your water at almost zero cost.
Just use an old eye drop bottle. Weights almost nothing too.
Tried a couple of straws, felt like sucking extra thick old school thickshake...far too much work.. Kinda like the taste of water without chemical..
Just ordered it..$87 nz, I'll do a review when it gets here....
I use a filter bottle and some army ration iodine pills.
Used a steripen for 6 weeks while trekking in Nepal last year,worked well,maybe I need to start using it here too..
Ive got one of these:
