Toilet tubes down the drain

Do you remember Blue Peter growing up as a kid?  We do.

The amount of amazing crafts that were put together using nothing more than some left over cardboard toilet paper rolls. Ahh the good old days.

But while toilet tubes are great for building kids crafts with, they are not supposed to be flushed down the toilet.  Yet that is exactly what a customer recently tried to do.  Cardboard can break down over time but unless it is done under significant force, cardboard tubes flushed down a toilet will very easily block the drain pipe and you will be in a whole world of poo problems.

At JSL, we are firm fans of the three p’s. Pee, Poo and (toilet) Paper.  That is what a toilet is designed to flush away.  It is not designed for flushing away food waste.  It is not designed to get rip of wet wipes and it certainly is not designed for cardboard.

So as we approach Christmas, please remember that if it is not one of the three p’s – DON’T FLUSH IT!!!
