Ok, I am thinking I washed my filter sock with Bleach. I rinsed it several times then dried it in Sun. My question is how do you recommend cleaning your filter sock is there a safer way? Thanks in Advance for paying it forward!

I've always washed them as you would white clothes, with bleach.
Then a short soak in a bucket with a dechlorinator ( start right).
 
I bleach in washer and then run it thru the rinse and let air dry. Beendoing it for years with never a problem.
 
+1 i wash it with just water and bleach in the washing machine and let air dry. never had a issue
 
I always just ran it in the washer without anything but water. What are you really trying to get rid of? For me it was just the detritus so a standard wash cycle was fine.
