Using the Potty Properly

[JaniceSW]

Tampons are flushable. And if the flushable wipes say they are flushable why would I believe you and not the company that makes them?

I think I explained why wipes are not flushable.  I have now seen three resources that have explained that over the past 6 months and that is one reason I made the posts. Tampons are about the only feminine product that is flushable but sources are saying that is becoming problematic because of all the stuff people are putting down their toilet!

How to tell if something is flushable is by putting them in water for hours or overnight. Swish it around every so often. If they don't break down, they're not flushable.

Tampons are NOT flushable. Sooner or later they'll get stuck in the sewer pipe and you'll have a nice big mess. I know from experience on that front. Son's girlfriend flushed tampons.  Cost big money big time.
