Default Septic System Question

Hello,

As a firm believer that the definition of true happiness is a well
working septic system, let me please ask this:

Have always used Scott toilet tissue.

Wife wants now to change to Cottonelle brand.
(please don't ask why)

Implication is that it has cotton fibers.

I believe that I read somewhere years ago that this stuff doesn't break
down, and is bad for septic systems.

Anyone have any experience with, or opinions on ?
Would hate to mess up system.

Thanks,
Bob


Cotton is cellulose, just like paper. Might take a while longer to
break down but it should break down.
