    Actually, it does work. I had a major problem with my 30 year old septic system. The previous homeowners had neglected having it pumped out regularly, and the fields were completely plugged. Replacing the fields would have been monstrously expensive because a road had been built over the fields after they were installed.

    I tried a different brand and nothing happened. I tried this item, and used it once a week for an entire summer. By the end of the summer, the fields were running normally. This is very impressive!

    I buy this for 3 or 4 years now. I use it to unclog toilet. It used to work really well for that. I'd put a little, leave for an hour or so and flush, it worked 9 out of 10 times. Now, something has changed in the formula. The liquid used to be a dark green that turned the water dark green as soon as you poured it in. Now it is a lighter green and it doesn't seem to change the water color as it used to. Also, now it works only half of the time.

    Basically, I bought this to unclog my toilet because my system was backing up in to my bathtub. It did not successfully fix that issue. But I'm not giving it a one star. Because that's not what it's meant for it. And because my plumber said that the issue was pretty bad. He had to go get a longer snake and all that so maybe it wasn't the fault of this product. I have been getting the plumbers to come out and when they do, they fine baby wipes that I don't use, in my plumbing so I'm gonna say that it's not the fault of this product and I didn't use it correctly.

    Reviewed in Canada on November 22, 2022
    Size: 67.6 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)Verified Purchase
    We had an issue with the septic tank plugging up when draining into the septic bed. There must have been a blockage somewhere deep in the piping leading into the bed.

    I cannot directly say this was the solution. For the price, it was a good value and was part of the action plan. It is worth trying compared with replacing the bed altogether. We had a contractor come out and tell us we needed to replace the bed.

    We ended up going a different route. I called a company to pump out the tank. Once the tank was drained, they still had the lids off. I took an old garden house and poured 2 bottles directly into the outlet pipe leading to the septic bed. I let it work for two weeks while the tank filled back up.

    It looks like it worked as it was no longer backing up.

    Two months later, I pulled a lid off again to take a look, I noticed that some paper was going into the pipe as we had no filter (30 yr old concrete tank/bed). I called a plumber to install a filter and add the plastic easy access lids. Just before he arrived, we again emptied 2 bottles into the outlet pipe with a garden hose. So far so good.

    Also, the plumber advised us to limit the laundry loads to a max of 1 a day to give the septic bed enough time to drain. When you factor in laundry, dishwasher, and showers, it can strain the system.
