DO NOT FLUSH SINGLE USE WIPES OF ANY KIND:
NEW TEST PRODUCES FAILING GRADE FOR “ FLUSHABILITY” OF SINGLE-USE WIPES

Results showed that not one single wipe was able to fall apart or disperse safely through the sewer system test. This can negatively impact household plumbing, municipal sewage infrastructure, and consequently, the environment. Single-use wipes, including cleaning and diaper wipes, cannot be safely flushed, even those labelled as “flushable”.
