Help! I have a problem with roots growing in my septic tank. What do
you recommend to kill them and prevent them from coming back? Thanks

Deep down, you already know the answer; don't you?





Thought I read some place about salt is the best thing. Don't know the
details. And, where I read it was on the Internet so, it must be true huh?


It was dump a bag of salt in a basement sink and let it dissolve slowly. I
don't know if it affects septic systems, the guy that did it was on city
sewer. He did it once a year.
