Eliminate Roots In Sewer Pipes
We offer Root killer treatments with Root X to keep your drains flowing!
RootX® makes it easy to kill roots in residential sewer lines, storm pipes and septic systems. And it's guaranteed to keep them root-free for 12 months.
Restore pipe flow capacity
The patented RootX formula foams on contact with water to reach the top of the pipe where 90% of the roots are. Degreasing agents strip away grime so the RootX herbicide can penetrate the roots, killing them on contact. RootX sticks to the pipe walls, preventing re-growth for up to three years. Dead roots decay over time, restoring pipes to their full capacity.
Tough on roots; easy on pipes
RootX kills roots using the aquatic herbicide Dichlobenil. It's non-caustic, non-fumigating and non-systemic, and it contains no diquat dibromide, copper sulfate or metam sodium. RootX will not harm pipes, septic systems or above-ground vegetation.
Proven with plumbers and municipalities nationwide
