I am on the sewer board for our small town's sewer system. I get to see first hand all the damage these so called flushable wipes do. At all of our pumping stations they wrap around all the pumps, wiring, and float switches in the manhole. It costs thousands of dollars a year in extra maintainance because of these wipes. Also,on my street we have what you call a pressure sewer system which includes a tank and sewage pump in our yard. I threw one flushable wipe down the toilet, within a day it had jammed a several hp 220 V pump in the tank. Had to pull the pump, disassemble it and remove the wipe. If you use the wipes put them only in the trash!
