You can find Roebic Foaming Root Killer in most hardware stores. It doesn't contain copper, so it is recommended in all states. There may be some local restrictions, so just ask your hardware store.
Trees are constantly looking for water and nutrients, so your main drain is an easy source. The roots can be as small as hair and easily fit in the joints of your main drain. When they come in contact with water and waste in your drain, they quickly grow, clogging your drain. Tree roots can also break and damage drain pipes, costing you hundreds in repairs.
A routine every homeowner should have is adding a root killer once or twice a year to the main drain. Tree roots grow the most in the spring and fall, so that is the best time to apply a root killer.
For this foaming root killer, you would want to wear rubber gloves and goggles. Pour the entire bottle into the closest toilet to the main drain on the 1st floor. Flush immediately. Let the tank fill up and flush again to push the product about 50 feet. If you need to go further, a second bottle will treat about 75 feet. Do not use the plumbing for about 6 hours.
If you have a longer distance, you would need to use a non foaming style.
Do this once or twice a year to prevent clogs and damage to your drain pipes.
