Mostly I just drink untreated water from our muddy water creek - we do let it settle some, though. We screen out the bigger critters and don't worry about the smaller ones. Been doing this since 1993 and all my digestive problems have cleared up.
Don't try this at home - we have no farmers upstream of us, only other cattle ranches. Sometimes the water gets a little "interesting" but most of the time it is almost sweet it is so good. When I first moved down here it used to bother me to drink after the cattle and seeing the occasional cow patty floating by but I got over that a long time ago. All the folks up and down the creek drink the water and live into their mid-90s so if it hurts them, it takes a long time to do it.
Occasionally I'll drink a beer, especially after a rain and the creek is real muddy.
Damn, I love country life - we got the best of everything.
