4 Things You Should Never Flush Down the Toilet

When it comes to maintaining a functional home, the toilet often doesn't get the attention it deserves—until something goes wrong. Flushing incorrectly can lead to clogged pipes, expensive plumbing bills, and environmental damage that extends far beyond your home. This guide highlights four common things you should never flush down the toilet, how they impact your plumbing, and what you should do instead.

Wet Wipes

Although they have a "flushable" label, wet wipes are one of the leading causes of plumbing clogs worldwide. Unlike toilet paper, wet wipes don’t break down easily in water. Once flushed, they can clump together and cause blockages in your pipes and in municipal sewer systems. To avoid this problem, always dispose of wet wipes in the trash. For homeowners, this simple step could save thousands of dollars in plumbing repairs.

Cotton Swabs

Cotton swabs are another thing you should never flush down the toilet, because they’re a hidden menace to your drainage system. These little tools don’t dissolve or break apart once flushed. Instead, they lodge themselves in narrow pipe sections, where they can trap other debris and create serious blockages. Over time, these clogs can lead to sewage backups or costly pipe replacements. Toss cotton swabs into the trash, not the toilet, to keep your system running smoothly.

Sanitary Products

Sanitary products, including tampons and pads, absorb liquid instead of breaking apart. When flushed, they expand and can easily block pipes and septic systems. Worse yet, they often end up in water treatment plants that can’t handle them. This can lead to environmental harm, contaminating waterways and harming aquatic life. Keep a dedicated waste bin in your bathroom to dispose of these items properly.

Medicines

Flushing expired or unused medications down the toilet causes severe damage to aquatic environments and can also enter the water supply. Many water filtration systems can’t remove pharmaceutical substances entirely, meaning traces of those medicines might end up in drinking water. To dispose of medicines, check for local drop-off programs or take-back initiatives that safely handle pharmaceuticals.

Why It Matters

Flushing items that don’t belong in your toilet is a critical reason why your sewer may be backing up. Improper flushing also contributes to larger environmental and infrastructure issues. On a personal level, improper flushing habits can cause inconvenient plumbing problems and hefty repair bills. But the impact doesn’t stop there. Blockages in municipal systems can require expensive repairs funded by taxpayers, while environmental consequences harm wildlife and water ecosystems.

To ensure a healthier home and environment, make a habit of responsible flushing. By keeping toilets reserved for things that are appropriate for flushing, you’ll enjoy a more efficient plumbing system, save on costly maintenance, and contribute to a cleaner, safer planet. Your pipes—and the environment—will thank you.

Briefing by Joyce Msuya, Assistant Secretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs and Deputy Emergency Relief Coordinator, on the protection of civilians in armed conflict. ------------------------------------------------------ Addressing the Security Council, Joyce Msuya, UN Assistant Secretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs and Deputy Emergency Relief Coordinator reported, “Humanitarian workers are being killed in unprecedented numbers. According to available data, 2024 was the worst year on record, with 377 aid workers killed across 20 countries. This was almost 100 more fatalities than in 2023, which already saw a 137 percent increase from 2022.” She continued, “And just three days ago, on 30 March in Rafah, teams from OCHA and the Palestinian Red Crescent Society recovered from a mass grave the bodies of fifteen emergency and aid workers—from the Palestinian Red Crescent Society, Civil Defense, and the United Nations—killed several days earlier by Israeli forces while trying to save lives. Their clearly marked vehicles were found destroyed and crushed.” She stressed, “These deaths bring the number of aid workers killed in the Strip since 7 October 2023 to more than 408. Gaza is the most dangerous place for humanitarians ever.” She stated, “There is no shortage of robust international legal frameworks to protect humanitarian and UN workers. Human rights law and standards, Conventions relating to the UN’s activities and personnel, and international humanitarian law together provide clear obligations to safeguard humanitarian personnel, assets, and operations. What is lacking is the political will to comply.” She also said, “Humanitarians also face the criminalization of their work. More and more are detained, interrogated, and accused of supporting terrorism simply for delivering aid to people in need.”

Briefing by Mr. Jonathan Whittall, OCHA's Head of Office for the Occupied Palestinian Territory, on Gaza. ----------------------------------------------------- "What is happening here defies decency, it defies humanity, it defies the law," a UN humanitarian official said Wednesday, describing mounting horrors in Gaza as a “war without limits.” Briefing reporters in New York via video call, Jonathan Whittall, Head of the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) in the Occupied Palestinian Territory, recounted a recent mission to Rafah, where he and colleagues uncovered a mass grave containing the bodies of medics. “These were medical workers from the Palestinian Red Crescent Society and the Civil Defense, still in their uniforms, still wearing gloves, they were killed while trying to save lives,” he said. “The ambulances were hit one by one as they advanced, as they acted into Rafah.” Whittall said the site was marked by crushed emergency vehicles, including a fire truck and a UN car. The incident, he said, was only one in a “parade” of horrors. In the past two weeks alone “UN premises have been shelled with tank fire, killing one of our colleagues and seriously injuring others. We've had international aid compounds and hospitals that have been hit,” he said. “People have been bombed at food distribution points where aid workers have also been killed.” Since the collapse of a ceasefire two weeks ago, forced displacement has surged, Whittall said, with about 100,000 people fleeing Rafah in the past 48 hours alone - many under fire. “I saw some of them in the same mission that I described at the beginning... running towards us and being shot in their backs,” he said. According to OCHA, 64 percent of Gaza is now under forced evacuation. “Nowhere and no one is safe in Gaza,” Whittall said. “My colleagues tell me that they just want to die with their families. Their worst fear is to survive alone.” Whittall also spoke about a total aid blockade. “Today, unfortunately, marks one month without any supplies entering into Gaza,” he said. “That’s one month of no food, no fuel, no aid, nothing has entered. So, 2.5 million people are trapped, bombed, starved.”

There will be no noon briefing, but there will be a briefing from the UN Mine Action Service (UNMAS), ahead of the International Day for Mine Awareness and Assistance in Mine Action, which is on Friday, April 4th. Richard Boulter, UNMAS’ Chief of Design, Operational Support and Oversight will be here to brief. He will be joined virtually by Edwin Faigmane, Chief of the Mine Action Programme in Nigeria, and Fatma Zourrig, Chief of the Mine Action Programme in Libya. That will be around 11:30 a.m. tomorrow. SECRETARY-GENERAL/GAZA The Secretary-General is deeply alarmed by the human toll of the intensified hostilities taking place in Gaza. He condemns the reported killing of over a thousand people, including women and children, since the collapse of the ceasefire. Large-scale Israeli bombardments and ground operations have resulted in the widespread destruction and the displacement of over 100,000 Palestinians from Rafah in the last two days alone, most of them having already been displaced multiple times and having been displaced with very few belongings. The Secretary-General is shocked by the attacks by the Israeli army on a medical and emergency convoy on 23 March resulting in the killing of 15 medical personnel and humanitarian workers in Gaza. Medical personnel and humanitarian and emergency workers must be protected by all parties to the conflict at all times, as required by international humanitarian law. Since October 2023, at least 408 aid workers have been killed in Gaza, and at least 280 of them have been United Nations humanitarian workers.

A BBC undercover team has witnessed the horrific trauma left by Myanmar’s earthquake after entering the country and reaching the city of Mandalay which was hit hardest by the disaster. As Yogita Limaye and her team drove into the city the massive scale of the destruction revealed itself bit by bit. In almost every street they found buildings had completely collapsed, reduced to piles of rubble. At the main city hospital patients are being treated outdoors. Myanmar's military government has said it's not allowing foreign journalists into the country after the quake, so the BBC team went in without permission. They had to operate carefully because the country has many informers and secret police who spy on their own people on behalf of the ruling military regime. The BBC team witnessed terrible trauma and suffering with little help for people facing the massive disaster. Anna Foster presents BBC News at Ten reporting by Yogita Limaye.

Donald Trump has announced sweeping tariffs on goods from countries around the world on what he called “Liberation Day”. The US President said it was the start of a "golden age" for America. Trump announced that a 25% tariff on all foreign-made vehicles would begin from midnight local time. On other imports, the EU will face 20% tariffs on goods entering the US, while UK goods will face a 10% tariff. Trump said countries would face what he called “reciprocal tariffs” according to what he claimed they charged on US goods, with a minimum charge - what he called a baseline” - of a 10% tariff. He said Chinese goods would face a tariff of 34% while for India the figure is 26%. Trump said tit-for-tat tariffs would be imposed to counter not just other countries' tariffs on US goods but what he called “nonmonetary" barriers like currency manipulation and "pollution havens."
