I've come to the conclusion (maybe erroneously so) that treatments with
Clorox, comet, etc., are superficial in nature when addressing soft rot. I
view them more in a "some action is better than no action" light.
It may be that terraclor is beneficial in addressing/retarding soft rot. In
light of my previous conclusions concerning chlorine products, I will try it
in a persisting belief that "some action is better than no action."
