Question

Are there kerosene-dedgrading bacteria in the kerosenes we buy from the petrol station?

Answer 1

There can be, it's not as common as people make it out to be. Bacteria can live in kerosene and diesel, if there is water in it. Mostly what you see is at the bottom of a tank or in the can is the gunk when the fuel breaks down, bacteria can cause the fuel to break down faster, but nothing will stop it from breaking down.

Answer 2

It all depends on if you keep the chimnies

clean on your kerosene lamps.
