In our continuing battle with the mice in our house, we've been cleaning, cleaning, cleaning this weekend. Years ago I had stuffed steel wool into a sink cabinet base where the dishwasher drain and supply lines enter. Today I decided to stuff more steel wool in that space and notice that the copper supply line had turned green where the steel wool was touching.
I don't remember the rules on what metals should/shouldn't touch in a plumbing setting. Should I replace the steel wool with something synthetic or fiberglass insulation? Do I risk corroding that copper pipe?
Thanks,
Paul
