Does a great job!!

I use this product 2 or 3 times a year, depending on the amount of rain we've had. Usually spring and fall but this year we have had much more rain than usual, so I used it in July. I have had no drain problems since I started this routine. It is purely preventive maintenance. I have recommended it to friends and neighbors. I will be buying more for the fall treatment.Read full review

How do you tell?

The product was obviously old. The container was swollen the powder was all clumped together. As far as how did it work? I can't get into my septic lines to see.

Great product but not properly packaged to prevent moisture.

This product works as described if it is properly packaged and stored. The bottle I received had been exposed to moisture so the "powder" was a hard wad, like a rock. I have used this product for years, and it works to keep roots out of the septic lines. It even killed a bush that infiltrated the lines. I have stored it for long periods of time, but never had this issue. I broke up the contents with a screw driver and plopped it in the commode. It did foam somewhat.Read full review

Time will tell

Too early to tell if this product does what it claims...i.e. Kill sewage related roots and prevent their regrow th for 6 to 9 months. Huge roots were growing into my home sewage treatment plant clogging up everything. I hag to dig up the system, open it up and literally saws-all out 40-60 lbs of pine tree roots to get it flowing again. I had never heard of ROOT KILLER and subsequently emptied 4 lbs of it into my house plumbing and/or directly into the treatment tank after mechanically removing the root mass. So far so good, but only time will tell. I plan to retreat in 6 months. The e-bay 6lb product was by far the best price/lb anywhere.Read full review

No clogged drain pipes.

Had problem with tree roots clogging main drain pipe. Had plumber rod pipes to clear. Have now used this for years in spring and fall. Have not had to call plumber since using. It works.

Great root killer

I’ve been using this for years after one day my shower backed up while washing clothes. After doing some research I realized my big trees roots had infiltrated my sewer pipes...I was young what did I know? Turns out it’s very common. For over a decade I’ve been using this, if I don’t remember to buy it in the summer I sure remember when the toilet threatens to overflow! Cheaper than a plumber!Read full review

Great root killer

I used this after having the tree roots ground out of my sewer line, and after 3 days of using it, my toilets began flushing a lot better than they had, prior to using it. That was last February, so I just added a second application for maintenance.Read full review

Product seems to work at reducing roots in sewer pipes. it's hard to tell without sending a camera down the pipe.
