Product Description
Product Description
Safe for all types of plumbing, Roebic K-77 Root Killer clears roots from pipes and stops new root growth. The fast-acting copper formula chemically kills roots that find their way into in a home's sewer line, which can cause costly backups. Roots are destroyed at the point of entry into pipes. Once killed, the dead root "seals off" the point of entry and the root cannot re-grow. Non-corrosive, K-77 works without harming surrounding trees, ground cover, or the natural bacteria content in septic tanks and cesspools. Roebic K-77 Root Killer is banned for use in septic systems in the state of Florida and Massachusetts due to state regulations, and is not for sale in Connecticut, the Bay counties of California, and the City of Golden in Jefferson County, CO. For over 50 years, Roebic has developed high quality products engineered for optimum performance, targeting specific problems and troublesome areas within the septic system. Trust Roebic, The Septic Professionals, for all your septic and drain care needs.

Back story: I have an acre of land with large trees and lots of plants/vines and the Roebic septic and leech field products have been great in maintaining my septic system for years. I have a basement with a sump hole, a French drain system that runs around the perimeter, and two floor drain holes. Roots grew into the perimeter pipes and the one that leads to the furthest floor drain from the sump hole, causing my basement to flood a few years ago ... right next to the HVAC system and water heater!! After I wasn't able to fix the problem myself, it cost me a few hundred for a plumber to use a large electric auger to cut through and pull out some roots (and he was barely able to do it). A tremendous amount of water flooded into that hole, once he pulled out some roots. This root killer takes time to work, so if you're dealing with a flooded basement and need to higher a plumber first, I highly suggest getting a second sump pump to which you can attach a hose long enough to exhaust the water out of your house; if I hadn't done this, that extra water would have flooded my basement by my sump hole when the roots were cut.
After that, I made sure I used root killers as maintenance. I tried a different brand for the next couple years - water kept running through the sump pipes all year long and the water level in the furthest floor drain remained just below floor level.
Since this past winter, I noticed the water level in the drain intermittently rising and dropping. In February, poured a bottle of the Roebic foaming non-copper version in my toilet and didn't notice any difference in the floor drain. About a couple weeks later, I poured a bottle of Roebic K-77 (copper version) into my toilet and a few tablespoons into the basement floor drain - still no difference in the water level and water continously ran through the sump pipes. (The plumber had cut only enough roots to let the water rush out and unflood my basement.)
With the extra rainfall this spring and summer, I've kept an eye on my floor drain and noticed the water rising above the drain again and some wet areas around the perimeter of my basement towards the backyard. After reading up on the effects of copper on roots, I purchased two more of the Roebic K-77 copper root killer and poured a bottle into my toilet in early June; still no difference the the water level of the floor drain. About a month later, I poured the second K-77 bottle into the toilet, minus a few tablespoons, which I poured directly into the basement drain hole. About 2 weeks later, the water in the floor drain receded. The water in the floor drain has continued to recede; it's been a month since the last bottle and I can't see any water in the drain, the perimeter of my basement is dry again, and no water runs through the sump hole pipes unless it rains or I'm doing laundry. I have a backup sump pump installed, but I've gone to the basement several times to check on the regular pump because it barely runs! The combination of the 2 bottles of K-77 in the toilet and the few tablespoons in the floor drain worked to kill the roots that have been causing water to back up in my basement drain system!
