What on earth is in that stuff. It don't half pong.
reminds me of ydrochloic acid from my school days, and that was a long time
ago. The guys building the wall and fence used it to clean the droppings of
cement etc, off the slabs.

Be a good crowd control system I'd imagine.

One safety article, suggests to wear a respirator while
working with the stuff. It's not intended for bystanders
to be inhaling it.

The lining of your lungs, makes a poor chemistry bench :-)

Being brickies, I'm sure they took precautions.

Yes but that won't keep the footways clean as well.
The worst smells are rotting fish or dead rats.

Skunks are MUCH worse than that.

Its not too bad at that. I did all the cleaning of my block work
