PaoloBillsFanFromItaly Posted March 14, 2020 Author Share Posted March 14, 2020 Another interest thing, my hands back have become drier and drier and full of bruises and cuts. This was simply due to...frequent washes... I bought a cream in pharmacy and things are getting better, I did't know my skin was so delicate...

Hopefully they do. They aren't unfortunately and will lead to a clog. None of the "flushable wipes" actually are. Don't flush them ever! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't flush them ever! Correct. These things are the worst for large sewer systems. May be ok for septics, but not for muni systems. 14 minutes ago, PaoloBillsFanFromItaly said: Another interest thing, my hands back have become drier and drier and full of bruises and cuts.

It's the best that I've used Edited March 14, 2020 by GG 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

row_33 Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 (edited) You can flush almost anything, “water soluble” is the key you can’t flush a bowling ball or microwave oven Edited March 14, 2020 by row_33 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup; we had an episode years ago where the wife was using 'flushable' baby wipes. Of course, they caught on the roots that had broken into the line to the septic tank. It took the plumber about two hours to clear it out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
