Oak Branches

I might be concerned that the boiling water didnt reach whatever is hidden beneath the bark. I allowed mine to soak for an hour so the bleach saturated every thing.

Thanks for the reply, what ratio of bleech to water did you use? Did you use a whole bottle of bleech or more? Also the bleach soaks into the branch so how do you rinse all the bleach out and off good enough after soaking them?

Thanks
