Equate Flushable Cleansing Cloths, Fresh Scent, 240 Wipes, 5 Resealable Packs

I've tried other flushable wet wipes and decided to stick with the Equate brand. These wipes are so versatile that I buy the multi-pack for use of daily facial care, diaper changes, and sanitizers when on the go. Equate wipes are less expensive than most brands and have equal or better performance than the others. Keep a pack in the diaper bag, gym bag, glove box and even your lunch bag - you may need to wipe the table!

Flushable? Just because you can, does not mean you should. These wet-wipes are a marvelous modern convenience. After some standard paperwork, they are a welcome final touch for fresh cleanliness. But Flushable? If you have a Septic Tank, these wipes will not break down, and will become part of the permanent non-organic solids that will eventually need to be pumped out of your Septic Tank (and those pump trucks are emptied into a public sewer system). If these are flushed into the public sewer system, waste treatment plants have to take an extra step in their non-organic solids removal, as these are caught, with other stuff, and sent to a landfill. That extra work shows up in everyones sewer bill. Use regular toilet paper to start, and that can obviously be flushed. Finish up with the wet-wipe, and then roll it up tight in a piece of regular toilet paper. Put that in the waste basket, the same as many feminine hygiene products. See, it does not have to be flushed! The Equate Wet Wipes in the 5-Pack is a great deal, and a Very Welcome modern convenience. Please use responsibly. Per Google: Wet wipes, even those labeled "flushable," are a major problem for waste treatment plants because they don't break down like toilet paper, instead forming large, costly blockages (fat-bergs) with grease in sewer lines and damaging pumps and screens, leading to expensive repairs, infrastructure issues, and potential sewage backups, requiring plants to manually remove huge amounts of non-biodegradable material, ultimately paid for by taxpayers. The simple rule is: only pee, poo, and toilet paper belong in the toilet; everything else, especially wipes, should go in the trash.
