Default Septic Tank Locator Systems

For those of you that use the electronic (bug) sensor for septic tank location as an ancillary service - which type do you use? Do you normally have any problems picking up the electronic sensor?

Is this something you flush and never get back? Sounds neat, anyhow. Got a link?

Marc. you can flush and not get back, or you can tie fishing line and retrieve it (no thanks). If I had a link, I wouldn't be asking where people get them

Buy cheap cell phones and a box of Ziplock bags. Just don't forget the number.

A man who has nothing which he cares more about than he does about his personal safety is a miserable creature who has no chance at being free, unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself."
