Hello!
There was a thread about killing the roots in drains a while back. Please refresh my memory.
Was it vinegar?

thats a common problem here.. annually...

finally after having insurance company out for the nth time.. I said, how about fixing the problem? instead of shelling out money everyt ime for damages.. they bitched and moaned... but they went ahead and replaced about 60' of sewerline (clay) with the green PVC looking stuff.. soon as that was done, they canceled my insurance (Farmers)... I had no problem picking up another insurance company.


goodluck.. seems other than roto-rootin', replacing the pipes if possible would be prefered.

Copper sulphate does a great job.  I picked some up at a local pool supply place.  Cheap too.....  MournSword
