Many people may not know how dangerous it is inside of your septic tank. The material that goes into your septic has a bi product of gases both poisonous and non poisonous. The main component of the sewer gases in your septic tank is methane, which can be extremely dangerous in high concentrations. Other parts of the sewer gases are hydrogen sulphide, ammonia, carbon dioxide, nitrogen dioxide, and even carbon monoxide.
