Disposing of saltwater

[christyf5]

I used to dump SW in the back garden, until my roommate informed me it was killing her magnolia plant. With this in mind, I started using it on weeds in the driveway, no luck killing those bloody things I have also poured about 15G on grass before with no detrimental effects.

I pour mine out on my grass not in my septic system because the salt will corrode the concrete septic tank and pump parts.

I toss mine down the bathtub with lots of water to weaken the salt content. Unfortunately since I live in an apartment I don't really have much of a choice.

When I lived in my house I used to dump it in my alley on my rock & sand type driveway for weed killing purposes. Like Christy's attempts, it never was sucessful at killing weeds.

Your septic tank relies on a bacterial reaction to break up the "stuff" and turn it into grey water, salt water in large amounts will kill it. I just pump mine out the window onto the laneway.
