Do you put 'flushable' wet wipes down the loo? Well, apparently they're not so flushable after all.
We've all been told that flushing wet wipes down the toilet is a big no, but these disgusting pictures show us why we should be listening.
A spokesman says it suggests people can throw as many as they like down the toilet - which is leading to some truly revolting finds in UK sewers. The stomach-turning snaps, taken at a sewer in Hull, show how wet wipes and sanitary towels can clog up pipes - with the company saying it spends "millions" in resolving blockages.
"Those labelled 'fine to flush' often indicate only one wipe should be flushed at a time, but often this is not followed or understood by customers, with less than half saying the logo indicated only one wipe should be flushed at a time," he says.
