When we had our septic system installed the guy said our soil was some of the best he's seen and our field should last forever...
...provided we didn't use powdered laundry detergent or dish detergent. So we've been using only liquid detergents. And the garbage disposal only gets the small bits that get past the strainer in the sink.
This is so true. Powdered detergents never completely dissolve and build up like cakes of stuff.
