If your soakaway has really past it, then introduce the septic tank worms to make your new drainage last much longer and also reduce any odours.
This happens due to a buid up of silt and undigested elements from your septic tank, they clog up your soakaway. Septic tank or sewage worms can repair your drainage filed or soak away in an eco friendly manor by simply eating all the waste material that has caused your soak away to fail. this will save you a fortune. So grow your own worms. Make your home wormeries make you money!
In some places giant worm farms are built for worms to EAT sewage sludge orbiosolids. The worms can eat their weight in biosolids a day and if they are really hungry they can eat twice their weight. The biosolids pass through the worm and the worm excretes it in the form of a fertilizer calledVermicast. Vermicast can be used successfully as a fertilizer as itcontains high levels of beneficial microbes which help to break down organic material in the soil.
Simply open the bucket lid.
Empty the soakaway worms into your septic tank or into the nearest manhole chamber to the soakaway.Within a few hours the worms will make their way into your soak away.
Within a few days they will start eating all the sludge and debris in your soakaway.
Within a few weeks your soakaway will return to its original condition.
Worms do not drown in water, sludge or silt if there is oxygen present.
In the silt, sludge, soil or water of most septic tanks and soakaways
there is an anerobic process that takes place. Because of this natural
process the worms exist comfortably.
There are many types of worms but only a few that eat sewage and are called 'septic tank worms' or 'soak away worms'.
You could use your home worm farm to grow these worms and make allot of money in the process.
