Not certain, but I should think if not, then packaging would indicate as not suitable for septic as other products often do. To be sure, best contact Harpic direct.

I usually use an adjustable wrench (or a similar tool like a nutcracker, because I have lots of tools at hand). Turn the lid anti-clockwise till it stops. It then needs something that will fit very snugly around the top half of the lid, where there is a smooth strip on opposite sides, so that you can exert a small amount of pressure as you turn it anti-clockwise.

Once you have managed to undo the lid for the first time, it then only needs a slight squeeze with your fingers on the upper part of the smooth strips to undo it again after you turn the lid till it stops. Or otherwise don't screw it back on for more than a couple of turns.

Harpic is a very good brand. They put out a new perfume in a white bottle which had a nasty cap. I do like the way the bottle works getting under the rim of the toilet. I now use one with a green lid. The idea is to push in both sides of the cap more to the bottom of the cap and twist. If you are having trouble mutilate the lid with something like a hacksaw, stilsens etc., be careful not to hurt yourself or if you get the lid off leave it off but put it in a safe place or again put plastic and a rubber band over the opening. Perhaps Harpic should look into changing the lid or putting out a choice of lid?

I love this bleach. It's fantastic & way better than anything used in past, however I have exactly the same problem opening the lids. Have to wait for hubby to come home & open it for me!
