Re: Need math help
1 milliliter is the volume of 1 centimeter x 1 centimeter x 1 centimeter or about 1/5th of a cubic inch(less than a 1/4 teaspoon).
You are looking at a super skinny small syringe size, not even cigarette size. Mix in a larger quantity for accuracy sake. A tiny bit off in volumes that small makes a significant difference in solution strengths. Ohhh, and is this a powder i.e. the Oz measurement may be referring to weight rather than to volume? Oh and the gallon measurement hopefully is based on the smaller US gallon rather than the larger gallon everyone else uses I am assuming(the real reason every other country gets better gas miles/gallon on their cars.)
This is why all but the US and Uzbekistan switched to metric btw /sarcasm off.
I can direct you to an Android app that converts all these measurements to units you are comfortable working with if that will be of any help?

Well I'm mixing up the chlorhexidine spray and I bought a bottle from eBay and it just turned out to be extremely small. I didn't want to make up a gallon solution because I didn't want it to go to waste but I may mix it up and try to sell some of them to people I know that keep snakes.
I just went to lowes and bought a spray bottle that worked and then I mixed up a half gallon mix.

Im not even sure how they make spray bottles that small...? Can you post a pic?
So you wanted to mix them up to the right consistency in 1ml spray bottles then use them to clean snake tubs? One squirt from my normal sized spray bottle probably contains more than 1ml. Its probably like almost a 1liter bottle.
I'm honestly so confused right now lol.

It's the same size as a camera lens cleaner spray bottle. It's a push down top. I just thought it was bigger.

One milliliter of liquid doesn't even fill a cap of a soda bottle. My mind just cant comprehend a one milliliter spray bottle. What would you use it for? A camera lens cleaner has to be a bigger bottle than one ml, i think you're confused lol.

Re: Need math help
it is a 1ml per spray bottle..only thing it could be.

Mix it till it's the color of a robin's egg. You don't need to be too scientific with Chlorhex. 1 cap per gallon or maybe 20 drops in a regular spritz bottle.

This app is very handy if you need to do conversions.
The only thing you have to keep in mind is to check if the units are Imperial, US(which has the same names as Imperial measurements) etc.
