Interesting concepts about milking that I don't believe

Milk one squeeze from each teat and discard
Dip each teat in teat dip and let air dry
    Teat Dip:
        1 pint of warm water
        1 drop of dawn detergent
        1 tablespoon bleach

The point of this is to prevent E. Coli. The teat dip is to prevent mastitis.
Bleach the wrong approach. Strengthen the immune system and weaken the superbug strain. Also, bleach weakens the immune system and make one more susceptible to bacteria and virus through the digestive track.
