It’s a Toilet, not a Trash Can Products labeled flushable are not safe to flush down the toilet no matter if you live in town or have a septic system! They don’t break down so they can get caught in your own internal plumbing and/or sewers and cause a clog, which can back up sewage and cause flooding. Other toilet paper alternatives such as napkins, paper towels, and facial tissue, while made of paper, are not meant to break down in the wastewater stream and will also clog plumbing.
