Absolutely shocking to see that sell wipes advertised as flushable which are harmful to aquatic life. How do these things even get onto the shelves?

New Blog Post: 'Flushable Wipes'
You should only flush bodily waste and toilet paper. Anything outside of that can clog the pipes and create sewer back-ups.

Don't be fooled by 'flushable' wipes. These wipes and pre-moistened towelettes are often advertised as flushable but are not. Flushing can contribute to clogs in sewer systems, which can cause pollutant overflow in our local water systems.

🙅‍PSA: “Flushable wipes” are not actually safe for your pipes. 🙅‍

❌🚽So remember: If you’re still turning to toilet-paper alternatives, don’t flush — throw the wipes, napkins, etc. in the trash!

Wipes marketed as 'flushable' really are not. They don't break down in water the way toilet paper does, and they can clog drains, septic systems, and wastewater infrastructure. Don't flush wipes; throw them away!
