Tips to Remove Foul Septic Odor from Yard
Foul septic odor is as repulsive as it gets. It starts off faint, in fact many homeowners are in denial about the smell for a few weeks. Eventually, however, the odor is undeniable and must be addressed. Do NOT make the mistake most homeowners do, which is to run to Home Depot or Lowes to purchase a septic treatment. Rid X or Roebic or Drano are not going to get the job done. Foul septic odor is caused by a far larger problem within the septic system, and a small monthly additive is not going to be enough to remove foul septic odor.
The first, and often times most important step, is acknowledging that you have a septic problem. Foul septic odor does not appear from time to time for no reason. The reason is real, and it indicates a serious imbalance in your septic system. Continue reading »

Zep Septic Treatment Review
The Zep Septic Treatment brand is fairly well recognized due to its exposure in many storefronts nation wide. Our base of readers have asked us to review a series of products that they have access to in their local stores rather than some of the more prominent, and in our opinion, more effective septic treatments on the market. If you are looking for a septic brand that is available locally, then Zep Septic Treatment certainly is among the options to consider.

Roebic K-37 Septic Tank Treatment Review
While not quite as recognizable as RID X, Roebic K-37 has established itself as a fairly common name within the septic treatment industry. Much of this is as a result of selling their products in major superstores such as Home Depot. Roebic K-37 is an annual maintenance treatment used to help prevent any build up or sludge in your system. While well manufactured and of decent quality, Roebic K-37 Septic Tank Treatment is not designed to reverse clogged septic systems, or failing drain field. It is only a preventative measure.

Which of Your Household Products are Adding Damage to your Septic Problem?

When you talk about septic problems, you may have many different “symptoms” that you may be experiencing, but only one cause for those issues. Whether you have a clogged drain field or the occasional backup, a foul septic odor or standing water in the yard, ALL SEPTIC PROBLEMS BEGIN WITH BACTERIA COUNTS.
It may not be instant, it may not stop your system overnight, but when a septic problem pops up, you better believe it started with bacteria counts in your tank dropping weeks, months or even years earlier. Septic problems are not rocket science, once bacteria levels drop to the point where they cannot keep up with the amount of waste within the system, problems begin to arise. In order to prevent this from happening you need to be sure to maintain proper bacteria and enzyme levels within the tank. Continue reading »
