HOW TO DEAL WITH A FULL SEPTIC TANK !

 If your septic tank is full, it's crucial to take immediate action to prevent potential issues and damage to your septic system. Here's what to do:

  1. Limit Water Usage: Minimize water usage in your household to prevent further strain on the already full septic tank. Avoid doing laundry, taking long showers, or running excessive water appliances until the issue is resolved.

  2. Avoid flushing: Do not flush toilets or drain water into sinks or drains connected to the septic system. This will prevent septic tank backups and overflows.



  3. Locate the Tank: Identify the location of your septic tank if you're unsure. It's typically buried underground, and you may need to consult a professional or refer to property records for assistance.

  4. Contact a Professional: Reach out to a licensed septic tank professional or a reputable septic service company. They have the expertise and equipment to address the situation safely and efficiently.

  5. Pump the Tank: The septic tank professional pumps the tank to remove solids and liquids. They will use specialized equipment to extract the contents properly and dispose of them according to local regulations.

  6. Inspect the System: After pumping the tank, the professional may inspect for any clogged septic system. They can identify problems and provide recommendations for repairs or ongoing maintenance.

Remember, it's best to avoid pumping the septic tank yourself, as it requires specialized equipment and knowledge. It is important to hire a septic tank professionals who will do the job safely, effectively, and efficiently, minimizing the chances of further damage or contamination. Regular septic tank maintenance, including scheduled pumping, can help prevent full tanks and minimize future issues.

An honest review of the Aroma Glass Air Fryer

Image
As a self-confessed lazy cook who values convenience, I recently tried the Aroma Glass Air Fryer. My purchase was based on its compact size and glass construction. Previously, I used the Big Boss Air Fryer , which, although also made of glass, was more suited to a large family due to its size. Here’s my honest review based on my experience with the Aroma Glass Air Fryer. Initial Impressions and Design The Aroma Glass Air Fryer immediately caught my eye with its sleek design and manageable size, suitable for single people like me. One of the features I appreciated about the Big Boss was its temperature control. This is essential for any appliance that heats food. Unfortunately, this is where Aroma falls short. Cooking performance Aroma Glass Air Fryer operates at a predetermined temperature, heating and timing foods accordingly. For example, potatoes are cooked at a fixed temperature for 20 minutes. This lack of temperature control is frustrating and limits the air fryer's versatili...

Eat healthy with breadfruit

Image
 Crazy thing is, I bought breadfruit 5 years ago to eat healthier. At the time, I had no idea how to cook breadfruit or what benefits it offered. It's funny because my neighbor has a breadfruit tree, and last year my yard was overrun with fruit. The fruit ranges widely in size and can reach 50 pounds with tough skin. Opportunity presented itself right in my yard, so I decided to try some recipes. The tough skin and sap make breadfruit one of the most challenging fruits to handle. Sap is sticky and attracts insects. I had difficulty cutting the fruit; my small knife couldn't even dent it. I chipped away at the beast for hours to extract the flesh. Breadfruit is often called a vegetable when fully ripe. Similar to bananas and plantains, it can be enjoyed as sweet fruit or an underripe vegetable. It can be roasted, sliced, or mixed with coconut milk and sugar. There are many different ways to consume this versatile fruit, making it an excellent addition to a healthy diet. Whet...

Reflections on Beauty, Strength, and Courage

Image
Recently, I watched a K-drama on Netflix featuring an actress so thin she resembled a walking pencil. Her appearance, marked by a noticeably pointed chin and an incredibly small waist, left my jaw dropping. It brought to mind the societal stigma attached to beauty and size for actresses. But beyond that, it reminded me of my own breast cancer journey. During my fight, I developed a theory: I believed that excluding certain foods would prevent a recurrence. This belief led me to forgo chemotherapy, a decision that was echoed with warnings all around. Instead, I turned to juicing and maintained a diet with relatively few to no carbohydrates. Despite my skinny appearance, I looked gaunt. My friendsnoticed the drastic change but never voiced concerns. My pants size shrank, my pictures told a different story, and my weight dropped to the point where I appeared older than my years. However, when I was upgraded to one mammogram per year, a wave of confidence in my food choices washed over m...
