Many people probably know that sewage in septic tanks is processed by bacteria. Bioactivators are specially produced for these purposes. Similarly, there are toilet products in the country that work on the same principle. The drugs relieve the summer resident of bad odors emanating from the cesspool, and also help reduce the frequency of pumping out sewage.
The principle of operation of drugs containing live bacteria
Preparations with a complex of living bacteria appeared thanks to the painstaking work of microbiologists. The products help the process of biological breakdown of organic waste. Inside the cesspool of a country toilet, putrefactive bacteria are intensively developing, destroying beneficial microorganisms. The result is contamination of the soil and underground water layers. To correct the situation, scientists have developed beneficial bacteria that work comprehensively in sewage.
Initially, the live bacteria contained in the cesspool cleaner are in a waiting state. When the drug gets into warm water, microorganisms awaken and they need a nutrient medium, which is the waste inside the cesspool. After introducing the product into the toilet, the awakened bacteria are activated, beginning to process sewage into disinfected liquid and sludge. Microbiologists are constantly searching for new microorganisms that facilitate faster processing of sewage.
There are special requirements for cesspool products for country toilets:
- speed of sewage processing;
- time of bacterial self-purification;
- removal of nitrogen-phosphorus impurities from sewage;
- 100% removal of bad odors.
The higher all of the listed indicators are, the more effective the product is, and, therefore, the more comfortable it becomes to use the country toilet.
Consistency of preparations for cesspools
All bacterial toilet products are divided into two classes:
- Liquid toilet products are a regular solution. The bacteria in such a preparation are practically already awakened. They can simply be placed inside a nutrient medium, where the microorganisms are immediately activated. Liquid products are most popular among summer residents due to their ease of use. The solution with beneficial bacteria is simply poured into the cesspool.
- Dry toilet products are available in tablets, granules, and powders. Live bacteria remain in a waiting state until the expiration date of the drug. To awaken microorganisms, the dry product is diluted with warm water. After complete dissolution of the drug, the solution is poured into the toilet pit.Once in the nutrient medium, the awakened bacteria resume their vital activity. The use of dry bioactivators is beneficial due to their compactness. A small bag of powder is enough to clean a large cesspool. The only downside is that the dry product must first be diluted with water.
Toilet products have different capabilities. This depends on the type of beneficial bacteria present in the preparation. Each type of microorganism is capable of processing certain waste, for example, toilet paper, fat deposits, etc.
What does toilet cleaner contain?
When a person buys bacteria for a toilet in the country, he is interested in what the product consists of and whether it will harm everything around him.
The composition of bioactivators usually includes the following live bacteria and substances:
- Aerobic microorganisms live only with access to oxygen. Bacteria cannot work in a toilet where there is no liquid inside the cesspool.
- Anaerobic microorganisms do not require oxygen. For their livelihoods, they obtain carbon from decaying organic waste.
- Enzymes are responsible for the process of chemical and biological reaction. In essence, they serve as organic catalysts.
- Enzymes are responsible for accelerating the biological processing of waste.
Cesspools of country toilets can contain a lot of liquid sewage. When used infrequently, moisture is partially absorbed into the ground and evaporates, causing the waste to become thick.How can a summer resident choose the right product for bacteria to live in any environment? For this purpose, preparations containing aerobic and anaerobic microorganisms have been developed. Such a product will always effectively clean the cesspool of a country toilet.
Review of popular biological products
Specialized stores offer consumers a variety of different preparations for cleaning country toilets. The principle of their operation is almost the same, the main thing is that you don’t get a fake.
Sanex
The bioactivator from Polish manufacturers is available in the form of a light brown powder. The smell is a bit like yeast. Before use, the product is diluted with warm water at a temperature of about 40OC, where the powder is infused for 30 minutes. It is important to use non-tap water. Chlorine impurities will kill bacteria. The solution with awakened microorganisms is poured through the toilet or directly into the toilet cesspool. The procedure is repeated monthly.
Atmosbio
The product from French manufacturers completely absorbs bad odors, dilutes solid waste accumulations, and reduces the volume of sewage. In essence, the biological product is a compost activator. Sold packaged in 0.5 kg packages. This amount of product is designed for sewage per 1000 liters. The bacteria contained in the microbiological preparation live only in liquid. If the cesspool contains thick waste, add a certain amount of water to liquefy it.
Microzyme SEPTI TRIT
The domestic toilet product consists of twelve strains of beneficial bacteria. With constant use of the drug, good fertilizer is obtained from sewage for a summer cottage. Even before adding the biological product, 3 buckets of warm water are poured into the cesspool. The liquid medium promotes the rapid activation of beneficial bacteria. To clean the pit of a street toilet, apply 250 g of the product for the first time. With each subsequent month, the norm is cut in half.
Bio Favorite
The American biologically active solution consists of a complex of bacteria that processes all organic waste, including toilet paper. After applying the drug, the bad smell around the toilet disappears. The solution is sold in 946 ml bottles. The contents of the bottle are poured into a cesspool with a volume of up to 2000 liters, where the bacteria live for a whole year.
Recycling of waste at the dacha using the biological product “Vodograi”
The biological product “Vodograi” has long gained popularity among summer residents. The dry powder consists of living bacteria that can break down organic waste into inorganic molecules. Nowadays, septic tanks are often installed in dachas, into which the drug “Vodograi” is administered according to the following instructions:
- The powder from the package is diluted with warm water. It is important to accurately measure the required amount with a tablespoon according to the volume of the waste storage tank.
- The solution is kept for at least 20 minutes. In this case, it is advisable to stir the liquid to better dissolve the drug.
- The prepared light brown solution is poured into the septic tank chamber. It is imperative to provide access to oxygen.
For the first 5 days, bacteria will multiply intensively, processing organic waste.Immediately after applying the drug, you should not use a washing machine for 24 hours, since the dissolved powder at this stage is dangerous for microorganisms.
With the help of the biological product "Vodograi" you can make a real dry closet with a cesspool on the street.
The product effectively breaks down waste inside any cesspool, even an open one. The first time a starting, increased dose of the drug is administered. It is calculated based on the volume of the pit. For ease of calculations, a table is shown on the packaging. Next, the product is added to the pit monthly, but in smaller portions.

What is hidden under the name of antiseptics for country toilets
Sometimes the name of a product as an antiseptic puts the summer resident into a stupor. How does this drug differ from bioactivators? In fact, an antiseptic for a toilet in the country is a means of decomposing waste and eliminating bad odors. That is, this is what the same bioactivators and chemicals are called. In the case of using the second means, you need to know that sewage broken down by a chemical preparation is not a useful fertilizer for a country garden. Such waste will need to be disposed of.
You can prepare a biologically active antiseptic yourself. For example, regular peat added inside a cesspool helps convert organic waste into compost. To quickly obtain results, add peat as often as possible.
The video talks about caring for village sewers:
Using antiseptics for the cesspool, the outdoor toilet stops emitting a bad smell throughout the entire territory of the dacha, the cleanliness of the land is maintained, the number of pumpings is reduced, in addition, bioactivators help to obtain good compost for the garden.
