Septic owners: What do you use to clean your toilets?

Remember, your septic tank holds hundred(s) of gallons of water, and every time you take a dump the bacteria are replenished. So unless you're planning on pouring a gallon of bleach down the drain, there's not much you can do to permanently affect the tank or drain field. Just, as always, follow the manufacturer's instructions. |

Just, as always, follow the manufacturer's instructions. Typically 1,000 gal or more. The bacteria in the tank will laugh at the cup of bleach you use to clean the toilet. |

If health issue bacteria become resistant to drugs, does septic bacteria develop resistance to chlorine, Lysol, pine-sol, etc? Red |

We use normal toilet cleaners like Lysol, etc. I don't use the types
that hang in the water tank for "constant cleaning" but a weekly application is not a problem. Agree with previous posts that judicious use is not an issue. "dean" wrote in message oups.com...

I use "The Works" available at Walmart for about $1.10. It contains
Hydrogen Chloride (hydrochloric acid) - the same as Lysol toilet bowl cleaner but cheaper. It works on rust stains too. ---MIKE--- In the White Mountains of New Hampshire (44° 15' N - Elevation 1580') |
