I bet you’re not social distancing either. Because, you know, YOU.

It’s always a terrible idea.
However with the inability to buy toilet paper, more people are using so-called flushable wipes. It’s not one tampon or one wipe, but all of them add up to blockages.
Can you explain why it’s necessary for you to flush it?

Have you seen and smelled what absorbs into a tampon?

Of course. Wrap with TP, put into trash can. Take your trash out when it's full.

Do you also flush old food? Onion peels? Fish? Other cooking stuff? Stuff growing in your fridge? 3 week old takeout? Of course not.

It's idiotic to flush anything besides TP. The plumber loves it, because you pay him.

Umm...no wrapping it in TP and throwing it in the trash can isn’t covering up the smell and blood. Your house must stank and clearly not coronavirus safe. I don’t let food rot, I use a garbage disposal.

What the actual F does this have to do with coronavirus? You sound incredibly immature and I hope you have a sewage backup in your basement to gain some new found wisdom.
In my house, we have garbage cans that use old grocery bags (made by simply human). We put one in as a liner, toss tampons in and when full or done with periods, we take the bag, tie it and toss it in the trash. It’s not that hard.
Similarly garbage disposals are for the crumbs and stuff left. You scrape your plate in the trash and run whatever is left down the disposal. Just because you’re not having plumbing problems in your own house doesn’t mean you aren’t causing problems further down the line.

This is the first time a corporation has lied to you about something?

Your home won’t stink. But it will if your plumbing gets backed up.

Good for you and your sister.

P.s. your home smells like a bloody tampon. Duh.

Also adding, I’ve NEVER had to call a plumber.

That's because you're clearly 14 and don't deal with this yourself.

If that makes you feel better. My tampons are still going in the toilet.

People like you suck.

Believe me when I say that sooner or later, a very expensive plumbing bill will be coming due to you.

OMG. The stupid is strong with the flushers.
You do realize that the water and wipes/tampons etc does actually flow beyond your little bubble right? All the garbage you are flushing has to be filtered out at a water treatment plant. And they requires manpower. Which requires workers. And in case you haven’t noticed WE ARE IN A PANDEMIC. Child care is shutting down and people aren’t leaving their homes and I’m willing to bet that workers at these treatment centers will start to become scarce.
Stop flushing your hygiene products. It threatens the operation of our sewers. JFC.

Me too but I stopped a few years ago once I learned they cannot be supported by the plumbing system. It's not really that big of a change to implement.

Marketing. There isn't a federal agency that regulates the use of the term flushable.

I knew even before I clicked that people who use these won't stop. What do plumbers know?
