For many owners of private houses, the sewerage system of which is connected to a cesspool, the problem of cleaning pits and pipes is very acute, since the process itself should not only be as efficient as possible, but also absolutely safe both for the environment and for humans and pets. ... Previously, bleach was used for these purposes. However, its effect does not last long. In addition to corrosive fumes, harmful to humans, they are also harmful to the environment. Even weeds do not grow near such a pit.
Currently, you can buy an excellent replacement for chlorine, these are special live bacteria that in a short time and without much effort decompose all solid waste and purify water. Water purified by such bacteria is suitable even for watering a vegetable garden, and solid waste is suitable for fertilizing a vegetable garden. Let's try to figure out what they are and how they work.
How biologics work and what they are
In addition, they kill not only harmful bacteria, but also beneficial ones, harming the entire ecosystem as a whole. Because of it, all waste discharged into the pit ceases to decompose.
Especially for such purposes, means have been developed that not only contribute to the decomposition of waste, but also accelerate this process. Such compositions are obtained by cultivating bacteria from certain depths of the soil. These are special bacteria that can process a large amount of waste products of animals and humans in the shortest possible time. Naturally, such drugs have only beneficial bacteria, disease-causing ones are excluded.
Such biological preparations have a certain dose of initial enzymes that help them quickly adapt to new living conditions and then perform their functions more efficiently.
Once in a favorable environment for them, bacteria begin to multiply very quickly. This speeds up their work many times over. If the weather is warm outside and the water in the cesspool is warm enough, then the result of their vital activity is already noticeable after a few days. The water is significantly clarified, the unpleasant odor disappears, the level of sewage content is reduced by an order of magnitude. Depending on the bacteria used, the waste processed by microorganisms is suitable as fertilizer for the garden and vegetable garden.
Existing types of biological products
Anaerobic strains of microorganisms do not require oxygen from external sources for their own functioning. Consequently, such bacteria should be added to the tank closure of the cesspools. There for them the most favorable environment for development and functioning, where they can decompose as quickly as possible all the waste existing in a closed pit.
Aerobic strains of microorganisms require oxygen from external sources. Such bacteria are more suitable for the septic type of cesspools. If they are used in closed pits, then you must first add an aeration device.
The next type of drugs are biological activators.Such activators are universal, but they are used more often to activate the above-described strains of microorganisms after a prolonged stay in a state of suspended animation, for example, after winter.
Conclusion
Before adding bacteria to the cesspool, a special, favorable environment for them should be prepared. Initially, it is required to purify the water from harmful substances that can kill bacteria. This can be done by settling the water. Then it is poured into another bucket and a certain amount of bacteria solution is added to it. You can pour kefir there as a recharge. Stir and let stand for about an hour. The cesspool solution is ready and can be poured into the pit.
