#1
Environmentally Safe Solution For Pipeline Root
Control
RootX is
a patented, non-systemic,chemical root control formula.
RootX kills only the roots with which it comes in
contact, not the tree or plant itself. The active ingredient,
dichlobenil, will not only kill roots, but will also prevent their
re-growth for up to one year. RootX is the #1
environmentally safe, easy to use root killer on the market
today.
How Does It
Work?
RootX is packaged as two dry powder components in
one container. When these components come in contact with water,
they create a sticky foam. This foam fills the entire pipe, coating
the roots and pipeline surfaces with the RootX
formula.
RootX
leaves a residue above the water line that continues to kill roots
and inhibits new growth for up to 12 months. The active
ingredient in RootX, dichlobenil, is applied at
concentrations of .55% or 5500 parts per million. This is 55 times
the minimum level needed to kill root tissue exposed to dichlobenil
from 30 minutes to one hour.
Safe and Easy
Application
RootX is packaged in convenient 2 and 4-pound
jars. RootX is applied by a professional
plumber or drain cleaner by pouring the formula either into
the toilet or outside sewer cleanout and following with 3 to 5
gallons of water. RootX is safe to use when
applied in accordance with the directions for use by a professional
plumber or drain cleaner.
Save
Money
RootX can be used with or without mechanical root
cutting equipment. Some situations such as root blockage will
require mechanical removal of roots. Mechanical removal is an
excellent short term solution. However, if the roots are cut and
left untreated, they will come back larger and stronger, eventually
destroying a sewer line and requiring the line to be replaced. With
your annual treatment of RootX, your sewer
complications can be treated before they develop, ensuring a clean
and healthy drainage system.
