The Dangers of Disposing of Women’s Hygiene Products

Women’s hygiene products like tampons and pads are designed to absorb moisture, making them unsuitable for flushing. They expand in water, causing severe blockages.

These products do not break down and can remain in pipes for years, mixing with debris to create costly clogs. Blockages can disrupt wastewater systems and pose health risks.

Dispose of hygiene products in the trash to prevent plumbing issues and protect the wastewater system.
