Bleach WILL not hurt plants -- indoors or out. It will help keep bugs from them tho. I know that bleach won't hurt them because I often put dishwater (no I have never had a dishwasher) that I have put bleach in on my plants. I allow my washer to drain -- again with bleach, on my plants. Also when I was about 18 (about 50 years ago) I had a sister in law from hell. I tried to ruin her plants by pouring bleach directly on them. They looked better than ever.

As to putting the water on the garden? My daughter thought about that, but then remembered...the bin that the diapers go in has a bit of bleach in it, so that's not good for her garden. She won't NOT put the little bleach in only because of bugs and she doesn't need those in her house.
