Now you’ve got me thinking and wondering if we’re the odd ones. Nothing but actual human waste goes into our septic. A small covered garbage container collects paper products and is emptied every day. No problems with the septic except for once when the system ‘crashed’ and it was due to some things that a teenager had flushed many years earlier that had finally gotten stuck. I’ll just say ‘balloons’. They don’t break down. Both my family and my husbands used a trash can in the bathroom, so I thought it was the way it was. Some things discretely wrapped if need be, and daily emptying. No problems. No smells, no issues.
