3. Paper Products Toilet paper is designed to break down in water, but paper towels, tissues and wipes do not dissolve easily. Over time, they accumulate in pipes. Never flush these items.

4. Food Waste Fats, oils and grease solidify in pipes. Large food scraps can also get stuck. Use strainers in sinks and avoid pouring fats/oils down drains. Compost food waste instead.

5. Hair Showers and sinks trap loose hair. As more hair gets washed down, it combines into a mass that blocks water flow. Use drain covers and clean out hair buildup regularly.

6. Dental Floss It seems harmless enough, but floss is made not to disintegrate. It loops around pipe curves and entangles other filth. Toss used floss in the trash, not down the drain.

7. Hygiene Products Cotton swabs, dental picks, bandages and condoms can wedge into tight drain pipes. Despite marketing claims, many of these products aren't actually "flushable." Play it safe and keep them out of drains.
