Rocks
I didn't read about no stinkin rocks. Did they have mosquitoes too?


Tru,

That's right the system does have vents on the roof. BUT the tubs will not drain if the tub vent is not open, try it.

Have you even lifted a manhole cover as kid? It is full of mosquitoes and roaches. That is how they get from one house to the other. A properly cared for septic system is far better than the City sewer but ONLY if it is cared for as designed.

Mosquitoes can get into anything. They can not reproduce or live without water. That is why you see them around standing water. There are fog treatments for septic systems if you truely have an infestation. It is a bit harder to do if the lids are covered but the process is the same. If the lid was accessable one could do it themselves.

My guess is they are coming from the septic system. I have seen it too many times in the last twenty years of new home construction.
