I save rain water from my house roof directely to a water butt so i can water my sarracenia
i noticed that my water had debris in it , which in time would make my water smell
so i came up with this home made fillter which can be detached and cleaned
now my water is clean
what parts i needed to make filter,
1 Water Butt Rain Diverter
2 Piece of plastic pipe for extention
3 Haberdashery plastic mesh -- 14 count ( count means how many holes per 25mm squaure )
sorry photos not in correct order
