good morning everyone it is best oh man
and I am hoping that this video will
help somebody out there don't mind the
intruder the background making making
racket while I talk but I'm hoping that
this video will help some people it is
this is a compound that is going to
solve a lot of my woes well that's funny
you say that this is exactly what I was
tossing and turning about and this is my
solution are you making my coffee don't
show my legs so I'll go ahead I'll go
ahead and say it I am dealing with a
second issue and this is the solution to
my problem would you like to help me
work on the septic system I can see your
legs
alright so please watch this to the end
and as I said I hope this solves your
your septic problems hello everyone its
EXO man and I'm out here in the front of
my property and here you see a nice pear
tree and a patch of bamboo that you
might be familiar with from our videos I
think I know there's a a thresher a bird
called the thresher nesting in here I
just heard it there was one last year -
anyway it's nice beautiful patch of
bamboo for those of you who love bamboo
only the problem is
my house is over yonder way back there
it's doing a lot of work on it right now
and my drain field is here and I have a
first and second tank by the house the
septic tank and in the gray water and
then out here I have a third tank before
the drain field and don't ask me how all
this bamboo got going here but I've got
to tear it all out now cuz look at this
I just tried to excavate this to get at
it with the with the tractor was that
little greater and of course that didn't
do anything could just it just glided
over the top of the mat mat so I have
come out here and with the pickaxe and
the shovel excavated and gotten to the
chamber of my nightmares yes that's
right last night I I had a nightmare
well I had troubled thoughts and dreams
about this bamboo and about it
destroying my septic field so hopefully
better late than never I'm going of
course there have been a lot of root
growing into the seam of this all the
way around you know trying to get to the
candy the roots want to get to the candy
even that gray water so delicious and
nutritious these bamboos but anyhow I am
going to put little copper sulfate and
copper sulfate really inhibits attacks
the roots you know it creates a boundary
the roots are discouraged and don't and
don't come after this stuff ion is my
understanding once you saturate it the
tank with it and I suppose the ground
soil around this around this chamber so
anyway we're gonna flush some copper
sulfate down into the lines
they're in a septic field and hope in
hopes that if the bamboo roots are you
know getting access to that intruding on
that drain field that will stop it at
least and I haven't had any problems as
yet you know keeping my fingers crossed
but I'm anticipating them if I don't
deal with this so there you go
bamboo and boy I'm sure I'm gonna hear a
lot of comments there are a lot of
people that hate bamboo I personally
love it but I don't like it here so
anyway please share your comments about
septic woes and about treatments about
cures we always flush septic treatment
down our toilet
I wouldn't think it'd be a good idea to
flush copper sulfate in the toilet
because that would get in the primary
tank and that would be probably bad for
the bacteria you don't want to kill off
the bacteria that breaks down sewage all
right
so anyway thanks for watching
wish me luck and I shall return
all right let's lift that hatch
look at that the roots have actually
really gotten some penetration there
through the seal you see I created a
thin root mat and then once the roots
got access they increased in size and
mass so hopefully the tank is still
intact and you know I've heard that
bamboo I've read that it can actually
break up concrete like it's
nothing it looks like I might be way too
full of water there's no pump out here
it just kind of reaches out into that
field so we'll get this cleaned up and
get some copper sulfate in there let it
splash right yeah try not to
oh you have to you have to get it with
the back yeah how's thinking with all
that flat more on sir are the poop
master
that's a cool nickname poop maestro
Walker you to wash my boots off now this
is kind of a shitty thing you're doing
here
so the tractor actually came in handy at
the end
[Laughter]
