We have a 75 litre flexitank that lies on the floor of our 4WD. Works like a charm but we have a lot of trouble trying to get the last of the water out of the tank for storage. We end up with a cup or two. Bit worried about the bugs we may be breeding. Does anyone know any tricks for this?

blow it up with air, then let most the water out the filler. Blow it up again and leave it upsidedown and the rest will run into the filler cap.

Yep, as gbc said above, then hang it upside down (mine is in an old mouse proof wardrobe in the shed) don`t fold it or have any creases in it.

I should have added, ......... if you flush it out with a carbsoda solution a couple of times just before you use it next time it will be all good.
