Now, I'm a bit sceptical: I read a report a few years ago that products with the word 'eco' in the name or a dolphin on the label are often no more environmentally friendly than the products from Persil or Proctor & Gamble. It's often just a marketing ploy.

We had a bit of a problem with our biocycle septic system that was discovered at the last maintenance - now, I actually have a suspicion that this was due to our chlorinating our water tanks with a goodly dose of bleach last summer - the water got a bit pongy and was way too warm - rather than the products we use which have otherwise which have not given trouble for years and years. BUT - if I can get some good information, all the better in my opinion, the septic tank maintenance man thought we should look into that.

For this Nelson collector, houseplants help her cope with health challenges. "It’s been proven that distraction is a really good pain relief and the plants gave me something to focus on and interrupt the pain pathways.”
