So I had the toilets start bubbling and not flushing correctly. Used the snake I have in the cleanout and it worked somewhat. Everything is working now, but I was wondering if anyone has used a main line cleaner and if it was worth it? Here's what I'm leaning towards...

Do you think the problem is under your house or somewhere between the house and the street?

Patriot Chemical Foaming Root Killer is best I've used and I fight our main line constantly. It kills roots but also keeps the line clean. It's available on Ebay and Amazon. I haven't snaked the line in 4 years since I found this stuff. It used to be at least twice a year.

Your filter for your septic tank is probably clogged.
