Product Details
Biological Grease Treatment for Lift Stations
Bug On A Rope is an environmentally safe, biological grease treatment specifically designed for use in lift stations, sewer lines, and wastewater collection systems. Engineered by Aquafix Wastewater Labs, this slow-dissolving brick delivers an advanced blend of wastewater bacteria, enzymes, and biostimulants to continuously break down fats, oils, and grease (FOG). It offers a low-labor, high-impact alternative to mechanical or chemical solutions for FOG remediation.
At the heart of Bug On A Rope is a core packed with high-performance Pseudomonas bacteria that provide immediate FOG degradation. Encasing this core is an outer layer of oxygen-rich biostimulants and grease-eating Bacillus strains, optimized for long-term activity. This dual-action system makes it one of the most effective eco-friendly wastewater treatment tools available for controlling FOG-related problems.
Wastewater operators simply hang the block under incoming flow where it remains fully submerged. As the block gradually dissolves, it releases seven strains of wastewater microbial solutions and productive biocatalysts. This automated delivery ensures round-the-clock FOG reduction and lift station maintenance which supports downstream operations by lowering BOD and sulfide generation. Pair with GreaseZilla for especially challenging lift stations with FOG accumulation.
Used by municipalities and industrial facilities across the country, Bug On A Rope is the trusted solution for preventative FOG maintenance. It helps wastewater operators extend system longevity, reduce backups, and avoid costly cleanouts—while aligning with environmentally responsible practices.
