Do anti-bacterial household products hurt my septic tank system?
Many households products contain chemicals that will kill bacteria. Your septic tank requires that bacteria to function properly. You can contact our office for a full brochure on household products determined safe for use with a septic tank system. Note that anti-bacterial products gently damage and impair the bacteria’s functioning ability and in fairness, rarely will any ONE brand knock out your system. It’s the use of MANY anti-bacterial products you use on a daily basis that must be monitored.
