## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this 4 lbs or 5 lb size??**
A: It is just a tad under 5lbs

**Q: is this a liquid, or granular?**
A: Hello.  It's granular and aboout the size of kosher salt, maybe a tiny bit larger. They recommend you put about 2 lbs. in your sewer line when things start to flow slower (either toilet nearest to ground, or in cleanout plug in the sewer line) in a timeframe of every six months.

**Q: How long did it take to work?**
A: We used it as a maintenance precaution to avoid future problems.

**Q: How do you measure 1/2 lb. at a time.**
A: I put 3/4 of a 16 oz beer cup in the bowl add this once a month to keep roots out of the pipes. 

I used a scale for food to come up with this amount
