Jensen Beach Residents Struggle with Recurring Septic Backups

Jensen Beach residents in Florida are facing recurring septic backups after storms, causing frustration and inconvenience for those affected.

Daniel Fletchall, a neighbor on Northwest Sunset Boulevard, reached out to WPTV about the issue, saying that after heavy rain, sewage water from his septic tank comes up into his yard, making it difficult to let his dog outside or even flush toilets.

'I'm forced to live in this filth,' Fletchall said. 'I got to go down to Home Depot or go to the mall to use the bathroom.'

Fletchall and other neighbors, including Christie Berger and Rachelle Kukan, have been dealing with septic back-ups every time there's heavy rain.
