SEPTIC TANK BACTERIA

Septic tank bacteria, is the heart and soul of septic tanks, cesspits and sewage treatment plants.

Septic tank bacteria are basically living biological organisms that break down bad waste products that enter the septic tank, and convert them into more environmentally friendly by products.

Let me first address this by saying that a healthy septic tank does not smell.  As discussed in a  previous article septic tank bacteria when existing and active in a normal sewage environment breaks down the waste as it should do, naturally.

Bad smells are generally the result of the demise or death of the healthy bacteria.

Because of the detergents used in modern living such as bleach, washing powders, soaps, washing up liquid e.t.c these kill the healthy septic tank bacteria.

Once the healthy bacteria die, the smell results from gases emitted from the break down of the rotting waste.

The solution for bad septic tank smells is to reinstall healthy bacteria into your septic tank.  This septic tank bacteria can be purchased from us.  It is easy to reinstall into your septic tank.

The septic tank bacteria we sell comes in powder form and can be simply poured into your toilet and flushed.  Within days the septic tank bacteria will start multiplying in the septic tank, and the smells will disappear.

Septic tank bacteria can also break down fatty deposits and keep your pipes free from blockages.

The other solution is to change your household cleaning products, good alternatives are available from the supermarkets.  The products I recommend are made by a company called Ecover and they are made from plant derivatives. They produce virtually all types of household cleaning products, and most importantly of all they are good for your septic tank.
