If your house has a septic system stay clear of those with harsh chemicals. If you have a septic system you need to stay away from chemical based cleaning products found in your supermarket as these chemicals damage your septic tank and may lead to an expensive repair or replacement. It is particularly important to read labels on household products to determine if they are safe for septic systems and monitor the level of use. Buying a biodegradable toilet cleaner means that it can safely undergo decomposition inside the septic tank without harming the bacteria.

A biodegradable naturally ingredient toilet cleaner will help you remove stains and odors while keeping your septic tank healthy. Foaming or solid drain cleaners can damage the system and should not be used. However even liquid drain cleaners may cause septic tank damage if used on a regular basis. Harsh toxic chemicals can actually kill the healthy bacteria that thrive inside your septic system and naturally break down the waste inside the tank.

Instead use safe and mild toilet cleaners that deodorize clean and kill. Plant based toilet bowl cleaners are the best option for septic systems. Just two gallons of chlorine bleach entering the system within a short period will kill most of the useful bacteria in a 1 000 gallon septic tank. Non biodegradable toilet cleaners will either build up in the septic tank or simply flow out of the tank and penetrate through the ground further poisoning the ground water.
