I know this isn't going to be a nice job, and believe me, I've contacted numerous companies to see if they can come out and clean the tank, however I live fairly remote, and no one appears keen to come out to do the work...
I have a relatively small septic tank (I think around 1M3). I've noticed when I flush my toilet, there is a bad odour, which after a bit of googling, appears to mean the septic tank needs the solids emptying.
Lacking any better options, can I simply get a shovel, and remove the solids myself? Will this solve the issue? Anything I ought to be careful of, so as not to break anything?
Thanks!
