Put a little clorox in it. If they don't take it then, they aren't hard up for water.
How much clorox in how much water?

I wouldn't put more than you'd put in swimming pool water. I'd think a capful would be plenty in a five gallon bucket.

I usually just put a splash into 4-5 gallons. Don't forget, if it is an open container, the chlorine will evaporate out over time, just like a swimming pool.
