You can measure bleach by using 1 to 3 teaspoons or the lid of the container. Mix the measured bleach with one gallon of water. However you decide to measure the bleach, you will need to test the concentration to make sure it isn’t too weak or too strong.
Do not add soap to this mix because the sanitizer will not work with soap in it. (If you use another kind of sanitizing mix, be sure it is approved by the Health Department.)
Testing Sanitizer
100 ppm chlorine residual
The only way to know the concentration of the sanitizer is to use test strips made for the type of sanitizer you are using.
Use special test strips that are made for the sanitizer you are using. For chlorine or bleach, the test strip should turn a blue color that indicates 100 parts per million (ppm). Look at the color chart on the test strip container. If the sanitizer has less than 100 ppm it is too weak. If it has 200ppm, it is too strong and can make people sick.
Change the sanitizer when it starts to get dirty. The sanitizer stops working when it gets dirty.
