Flushing nappies is a dirty business... Please don’t flush: ✘ Sanitary products ✘ Nappies ✘ Cleansing wipes ✘ Condoms ✘ Cotton buds and cotton wool ✘ Plasters ✘ Fats, oils and grease

id you know we clear over 55,000 sewer blockages each year? And a whopping 75% of them are caused by putting the wrong thing down the toilet or sink!
When you’re buying those baby essentials and preparing for a new chapter in your life, we know where to dispose of all those dirty nappies is probably the last thing on your mind, but small changes can make a big difference.
Sewer blockages can lead to sewer flooding in your home, which can be very unpleasant, especially when looking after a new born baby. Only human waste, toilet tissue and a small amount of household cleaning products should be flushed down the toilet.
Visit our website at
stwater.co.uk/sewer for more information and remember next time you change a nappy –
bin it, don’t flush it!
