🚿 NEVER Pour Down the Drain:

❌ Grease, oils, or fats – they harden and clog pipes
❌ Coffee grounds – clump up and block drains
❌ Flour or pasta water – turns into a sticky mess
❌ Paint, chemicals, or medications – toxic for plumbing & the planet
❌ Rice or grains – swell with water and cause backups

🚽 NEVER Flush:

❌ Wipes (even “flushable” ones) – they don’t break down
❌ Cotton balls, pads, or swabs – expand and block pipes
❌ Hair – binds with grease to form giant clogs
❌ Dental floss – wraps around plumbing parts
❌ Kitty litter – hardens and damages sewer systems

💡 Better safe than stuck!
