Measures to Take When Landscaping Over a Septic Leach Field
If the liquid waste in your home drains into a septic tank within your property, you need to be careful when landscaping near it. The septic system has a drain pipe which releases effluent into the soil after it's been broken down by bacteria in the septic system. Landscaping over a septic leach field requires special care to avoid causing harm to yourself or interrupting the functioning of the septic system.
