What do people with septic tanks do to prepare a bathroom for visitors in this era?
I ask because one should be careful never to let any antibacterial agent get into the septic system. It stops the work of decomposition. But I've figured out the answer myself. Plenty of soap.
The question came to me as I was wiping down the surfaces in our vacation house with Clorox cleaner in preparation for our son's family arriving after we left.

to accelerate the digestion of increased influent. The same chemicals are available for cesspools and septic tanks.
But you sure know your sh!t, that’s just a fact!! 
as the septic process should handle it (at least in normal amounts).
In any case, I let my dog take care of it (one more reason to hav'em around). 
Anyhow, if you treat your tank well, there is also no need for additives (and small amounts of disinfectants are OK).
