For our whole lives (before we bought a home in the Villages) every place we ever lived had a septic system. Bleach is poison to a septic system, it kills all the good bacteria that breaks down the waste in the holding tank. We are conditioned to never let a drop of bleach go down either a sink or toilet, or it will cause harm to our septic system. I guess now that we have a place in the Villages with public sewers, we can get ourselves a bottle of bleach.
