🤮 “flushable” wipes are the culprit

Time for Americans to transition to bidets!

“These wipes are the bane of my existence,” the city’s wastewater boss, Pam Elardo, told The Post. “People want their bums to be fresh. Fine. But put it in the trash.”

Fed-up city officials commissioned a study in September that found none of the major six “flushable” wipes disintegrated as claimed, and now the DEP wants them banned.”

Bet you a million they are handing wipes out to migrants in their welcome bags. While body wipes would be replacements for lack of showers.
