If you wouldn't flush a pad why would you flush a tampon?

This is really just a reminder that you should only be flushing your bodily waste and toilet paper!

No pads! 🚫

No tampons!🚫

No tissues 🚫

No "flushable" wipes!🚫

What's really sad is when a guy knows that, but a woman doesn't.

I remember having that conversation with an ex, years ago. I found out her and her daughter both flushed them, and I was shocked. So, I politely told them they aren't supposed to do that. They had never been told that before, and happily continued flushing their tampons down the toilet.

Several months later, my ex found out they had completely destroyed her septic system, and needed to replace it. The reason? Flushed tampons. 🤷‍♂️

People flush other things? That wild, toilet paper is designed to dissolve in water and the force of the flush helps it even more, nothing else is meant to flush unless it's promoted that way, kinda wild you have to remind people of this lol

[Razp_Sorbet]

Not even when its promoted that way. "Flushable" wipes are not flushable

[ChicoFromThe305]

So why haven't they gotten sued for false advertising 😂

I wrapped used tampons in toilet paper and throw them in the trash... not the toilet. I also use a bidet instead of wiping.

You would think most grown women would know this but they still do it in public restrooms but fortunately not at my job.

[NathanDavis]

and in some places... not even toilet paper!!

the sewers are not built for it... lol

When I was a janitor, I saw a sign in the restrooms, that reminded the ladies not to flush those down the toilet.

Someone grew up with a father in the house👍🏻

[Razp_Sorbet]

Actually nobody taught me this. Found out on my own. My parents would flush tampons and tissues (if we ran out of TP) thankfully we never had any issues

[Ariesman81]

What? I can still hear my dad yelling when the septic guy told him what they found.

[QuestionObsession]

People have flushed spoilt food and other things down the toilet.

[Bklynbadboy12]

It can be very costly if you do

[Kelly6]
