>I instructed my husband to clean it using some bleach

…Sorry, to clarify, in what way were you expecting him to clean it? You said to use bleach, and he used bleach? Is this not on you?

Look, as a kid who definitely mixed a lot of chemicals he shouldn’t have… you have to mix a lot of ammonia and bleach to do anything.

Just don’t let him start playing with aluminum and iron iii oxide powder inside… because that makes a mess!

>aluminum and iron iii oxide powder

At least this requires an ignition source. Mixing the two without igniting it is harmless.

What 15 year old doesn’t do this with an ignition source in his hand?

That was more or less my point. The entire act of making thermite is intentional. People who mix bleach with another chemical in an attempt to clean something at home are doing it out of ignorance. There's a major difference.

Pickup some krud kutter, and he won't make this mistake twice. It's really good at cleaning up urine stains. IME am a cat owner.

I even use it in my ultrasonic cleaner, and if I have greasy clothes, a small bit goes into the wash with the clothes.
