Many homeowners and septic service firms do not know medications with a slow release component can and do cause problems for conventional drain field systems and for sandmound systems.

My two septic service firms told me not possible. Bottom line. Slow release medication components can cause septic problems. My Welcome or Home page tells part of my story and the problem. You may be surprised or amazed. Good article.
