    God no! lmao that’s almost as bad as that podcast guy that admitted he’d catch his own poop and gently drop it in the toilet so it doesn’t splash.

    You can get plumbing-safe wet wipes (baby wipes, basically). They work perfectly well.

      plumbing-safe wet wipes

      That’s usually a lie. But as long as it’s a rent house, it’s fine.

      There’s no such thing as flushable wet wipes. They might not clog your particular pipes but they do not break down in water. They can’t because then they wouldn’t be able to be wet. They contribute to massive clogs in the sewer systems that people have to go down and break up honestly it should be illegal to sell them

        It shouldn’t be illegal to sell wet wipes (I assume you meant the flushable variety), just make it illegal to flush it down

      It’s been shown over and over that there is no such thing as a wet wipe which is harmless to wastewater systems. Any google search will find thousands of results to that effect. So annoying how people like you have been purposely avoiding that news, it’s been said over and over.

      There’s no such thing as truly flushable wipes. They’re the bane of plumbers everywhere… Actually more the bane of people having to pay the plumber bill at some stage. A quick google will confirm this.

      Think of it… To be flushable they need to disintegrate in water. But they’re wet wipes so they are always wet… Yet they’re not disintegrating. Wipes which disintegrate in water is just toilet paper.
