City of Hawarden issued the following announcement on Mar. 19.
With the current pandemic and shortness of supplies, some cities across the country are dealing with the reality of citizens flushing alternative things, other than toilet paper, which then becomes an issue to the city’s sewer system and can potentially create health concerns.
Items that should not be flushed are:
Flushable Wipes (Not Really Flushable)
diapers
paper towels
facial tissue
cotton swabs
baby wipes
adult wipes
medicated hygiene wipes
facial pads
cotton balls
women’s hygiene products
all-purpose cleaning wipes
disposable toilet wand pads
makeup remover wipes
shower body wipes
Please make sure your household does your part to ensure the city’s sewer system continues to operate effectively!
