- Every day millions of Americans are flushing ordinary products down their toilets, but experts are trying to get them to toss these things in the trash instead. "A lot of people think of a toilet like a garbage can,” says Amy Schellenbaum of Popular Science. “They think ‘if it flushes you're good to go.’ That's not the case." Some common items include dental floss, pills, and hair, but the most-flushed products are baby and makeup wipes. #InsideEdition

If you're flushing Tampons down the toilet, then you obviously need to read the packages
Some have flushable applicators.

True, but anything to help prevent further water pollution is helpful. Thought 15 pills may seem like a few, 15 times billions upon billions of people can cause damage. I think people just need to think more big picture when they create waste.

They tell us not to flush stuff not to flush but they still continue to flush the things they say you’re not supposed to flush now I’m just confused 🤷♀️ 😂😂.
Just editing....
Fun fact, a lot of the stuff NYC wastewater treatment plants process out or remove because they can’t be processed gets shipped to Alabama by train and dumped in landfills in that state.
Edit to add that this may have changed since I learned about this some years ago, but I don’t think it has yet.
