The Septic Bio-Mat:
 
When the anaerobic (airless) effluent (septic liquid) makes contact with the aerobic (with air) soils in the absorption area, the Bio-Mat forms as a result.
 
The Bio-Mat can grow out of control and surface above the absorption area as dark, smelly puddles.
 
Symptoms: System Back-up, Puddles, Bad Smell.
