‼️Public Service Announcement ‼️
Don’t flush facial tissues, paper towels and ‘Flushable’ wipes down the toilet!
You will end up with a clog that is not easy to unclog. These items will make your sewer system back up into your homes where you are being isolated. Do not make your life worse by flushing anymore than TP in the toilet.
Having a drain unclogged can be costly. Please save yourself the poopy headache.
Flushable wipes are not flushable!

@crharmer, yeah. They are marketed as flushable. But they do SO SO much damage to septic systems

RayOfMySunShine··

I haven't used tampons since I was a teenager. I didn't know they weren't supposed to be flushed. 😳

I'm really surprised facial tissue can't go down. We had a bad septic problem when we bought our new home because the previous owner flushed wipes. It cost us a ton of money and the plumber kept saying "don't flush wipes" he thought I was lying when I said I didn't do it lol
RayOfMySunShine··
Hahahahaha I’ve had plumbers call in and say ‘these guys are full of shit. They flushed wipes!’ Hahahahaha
RayOfMySunShine··
I wonder if they had the same issue you did lol
Mandy··
lol idk the previous owner was a known crackhead so there's no telling wth she flushed

I thought people knew this already, to not flush anything down but toilet paper. lol we had septic in my old house. i had to put HUGE signs in the bathroom to let people know to ONLY flush toilet paper 😂
RayOfMySunShine··
Not everyone is taught! That’s why I shared this info. Lol

Previously i didn’t know you couldn’t flush flushable wipes. Flushed a few and right away noticed the water was flushing much slower. Stopped right away
RayOfMySunShine··
Good eye girl! Some drains lines aren’t built properly or are galvanized pipe and they get caught on barnacles! It’s crazy stuff lol
I’m glad you caught it before it became an issue!

My daughter flushed her plastic fruit down the toilet 🤦🏾♀️
RayOfMySunShine··
Oh lord.... how long ago was that? Did you have to have someone get it out?
kesha hicks··
maybe about 3 months ago. I told my dad about it and he just told me watch it and if the toilet starts to act up he’ll come and look at it. Only thing I think might of saved me is they just put in new sewer lines for my whole neighborhood. I’m so paranoid about it though.
