Wet wipes and pipes

Several kinds of wet wipes have appeared on the market in recent years. Whether they are used to clean a baby’s bottom or remove facial make-up, these cleaning wipes should never be tossed in the toilet.

Their texture and composition are such that they don’t disintegrate easily and they leave deposits in the pipes. Over time, these deposits clog plumbing, which leads to high repair costs while depriving citizens of an essential service.

Wet wipes must always be thrown in the trash and not in the toilet!

HERE IS A LIST OF OTHER HARMFUL FOR TOILETS

  • Flossing
  • Hair
  • Swabs
  • feminine protection products (applicators, tampons, sanitary napkins)
  • Drugs
  • Fats and oils
  • solvents and paints
