Shipping Details

Roebic Foaming Root Killer contains dichlobenil which prevents new growth. New root growths from outside the pipe joints are retarded or inhibited when they come in contact with the dichlobenil inside the pipe. Foaming Root Killer self-foams on contact with water. The foam acts as a carrying agent, putting the active ingredient in contact with the tree roots above the flow. Easy to use. This is an economical solution to a potentially very costly problem.

Clears roots from pipes and stops new growth
Will not harm surrounding trees or ground cover
Does not contain copper sulfate
Recommended for severe, reoccurring root problems
Self foams on contact with water
An economical solution to a costly problem

What Customers Are Saying

The Foaming Root Killer appears to be generally effective at killing and preventing tree roots from clogging sewer lines, though results may vary. Many customers reported successful use, with their drains running clear for extended periods. However, some found the product ineffective, especially for severe clogs. It works best as a preventative measure, used regularly every 3-6 months. Customers recommend following instructions carefully and being prepared for some initial mess when applying the foaming product. Overall, it seems to be a useful tool for homeowners dealing with recurring root problems, but may require multiple applications or additional steps to fully resolve severe clogs.
