When is the last time your well water was tested? And WHAT testing was done? Quite often I hear people lulled into a false sense of security because they just bought a property and the well water passed the countys (free) water test. Thats great - but what testing was done? Most times, they test for only one single contaminant - namely, fecal bacteria. If it doesnt contain this bacteria, it passes. Thats it. No testing for lead and arsenic, nothing for pesticides, herbicides or other chemicals used in the province. Even if the water was safe generations ago, the VAST majority of chemical contaminants showing up in our water supply simply didnt exist 20-30 years ago -and those that did exist sure werent tested for back then. Can you buy Weed n Feed now? Nope. Why? Gets into the ground water and is toxic. Along with thousands of other chemicals. Whats in your water? The best way to be certain is the install a water purifier suitable for your water chemistry. Check with a qualified professional to see what options you may have for your property. bonnyvillenouvelle.ca/article/20140819/BNV0801/308199984/-1/bnv/high-levels-of-arsenic-still-found-in-regions-well-water
