Sanitary pads


  The Dangers of Disposing of Sanitary Pads and Condoms in Drains Sanitary pads may seem harmless, but they are risky if not disposed of properly. Made from latex and synthetic materials, they do not break down. They can stretch and get stuck in pipes, causing blockages that stop water flow and lead to costly repairs. Condoms, also made from latex, can cause similar problems if flushed. They can fill with waste or water, making them even more likely to block pipes. Once stuck, they are very hard to remove and often need a plumber. To avoid these issues, always throw sanitary pads and condoms in the trash, not the toilet. Safe disposal protects your plumbing and the wastewater system.
