The Need to Properly Dispose of Fruit and Jar Stickers Fruit and jar stickers may seem harmless, but they should never go down the drain. These small stickers can cause significant plumbing issues.

The adhesive on these stickers can build up in pipes, sticking to other debris and creating clogs. The material, often plastic, breaks down slowly, contributing to pollution and harming wildlife if it enters waterways.

Always remove stickers and dispose of them in the trash to protect both plumbing and the environment.
