Your Septic System Is Alive — Here’s How to Keep It Healthy

Your septic system isn’t just a tank.
It’s a living ecosystem — home to billions of bacteria that quietly manage your waste and protect your drainfield.

But over time, that ecosystem can get stressed.

Here’s why:

  • Chemical cleaners and antibacterial soaps can kill the very bacteria your system needs.
  • Excessive water use dilutes bacterial strength.
  • Sludge builds up faster than bacteria can break it down.

And when waste doesn’t break down properly, the strain moves downstream — literally — to
your drainfield, where a natural bacterial layer called biomat can grow too thick.
That’s when things back up, slow down, or stop working altogether.

Why adding bacteria isn’t enough

Most septic additives promise a fix by throwing in more bacteria. But they often don’t work — because bacteria still need the right fuel to thrive.

Biologic™ feeds your system’s native bacteria — not foreign strains.

Biologic™ Septic is a plant-based, nutrient-rich micronutrient formula that nourishes the bacteria already living in your tank.
That’s how it helps your system:

  • Break down solids more completely
  • Minimize sludge buildup
  • Keep biomat in check
  • Support healthy percolation into the soil

The result? A drainfield that absorbs wastewater like it should — even in older or overloaded systems.

This same micronutrient formula is trusted by industrial and municipal treatment plants in
over 40 countries.
Now, it’s available for your home.

Tip of the Month:

Avoid antibacterial cleaning products, bleach, and “flushable” wipes. These can destroy your tank’s bacterial balance. Look for septic-safe, plant-based cleaners.
