I am sure someone will have some insight into why this is a bad solution.
😂 Assuming you live in a city with sewer, idk how detrimental it would be…never really thought about it. And sewer stuff, it’s so toxic, and there are facilities dedicated to dealing with it.
I live out in the country, with a septic system. This septic system is a living organism of sorts; it contains bacteria & other life that helps to break down my shit, piss, etc. Idk how good introducing a bunch of this soap into the septic tank would be. Maybe it’s harmless… Or maybe it’ll kill all the buggies.
I do know that if you feel your septic tank is a little ‘sluggish’, lacking in activity, you flush some raw chicken skin down your toilet & that’s supposed to help. 🙂
Oils in a septic tank are a poor idea. It floats, so it never gets pumped out as effluent, and it builds up in the tank. When you get the tank pumped, it should go away then as the pumper guy will usually stir it up enough to get all the oils and solids, but in the meantime it’s there interfering with the bugs.
Right I understand. But OP was saying someone will come along talking about unintended consequences, possibly very negative ones. I…fail to see any real problem. But I’m also not a plumber. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I believe oil argument has little to do with sewers/septic tanks. It s just that oil may clog your pipes
