Any well-reviewed septic treatment such as Green Gobbler, Rid-X, or Bio-Tab will do and there are many other reliable treatment pods available on the market. The most important aspect is to follow the manufacturer’s instructions carefully when using any septic tank treatment as these substances can be harmful to your health and your plumbing system if misused.
No, it is not recommended to put yeast in septic tanks as yeast is a fungus, not a bacteria. Thus, you are not replacing bacteria, but instead competing with it for a food source. No supplier of a black water septic/treatment plant will recommend adding yeast; instead, a bacteria blend and enzymes should be used. Yeast is an actual organic material that can cause anaerobic bacteria to grow, which can lead to septic system problems.
Proper septic tank maintenance implies having your tank pumped every 3-5 years, using water efficiently, and disposing of household chemicals responsibly. Avoid getting grease, coffee grounds, and other non-biodegradable items such as wet wipes or feminine hygiene products into the tank. You can even go as far as installing a water filter to prevent solid materials from entering the tank, and planting trees and shrubs near the tank to absorb excess water. Make sure to keep the lid of your septic tank closed and check it regularly.
It's recommended to vacuum your sofa once a week to prevent dirt and debris from accumulating on the surface and in the crevices.
It depends on the material of your sofa. Some materials are more sensitive to water and can be damaged by excessive moisture. Be sure to check the care label on your sofa or test a small area before using water to clean it.
A septic tank is an underground wastewater treatment system used in areas without centralized sewer systems. It separates solids from wastewater, allowing the solids to settle while liquids drain into a drain field for further treatment.
Yes. Treatments (biological/enzyme-based) help break down waste and maintain healthy bacterial balance, especially in households with high usage.
Sanitary granules are absorbent crystals or beads used inside sanitary bins to absorb liquids, neutralize odors, and prevent bacterial growth. They help maintain hygiene in washrooms where feminine waste (pads, tampons, liners) is disposed.
The granules are usually made of super-absorbent polymers (SAP) and antibacterial agents. Once they come into contact with moisture, they swell into a gel-like form, locking in liquids and odors while releasing a light fragrance.
Typically, 2–3 tablespoons (about 20–30 grams) per standard sanitary bin (15–20 L) is enough. The amount may vary depending on usage levels and bin size.

Proper disposal prevents: 1. Spread of bacteria and unpleasant odors. 2. Blockages in drainage systems. 3. Environmental pollution. 4. Embarrassment or discomfort for users and cleaning staff.
Flushing pads or tampons can cause severe plumbing blockages, overflow, and environmental harm, as these materials do not break down easily in water.
The frequency depends on restroom traffic. Typically, bins should be emptied weekly or more often in high-use facilities. Regular servicing ensures cleanliness, odor control, and compliance with hygiene regulations.
