Studies show that 98% of materials clogging equipment at wastewater treatment plants are non-flushable items. These culprits include baby wipes, paper towels, feminine hygiene products, cleaning wipes, and other trash not designed to be flushed.

Non-flushable products can wreak havoc on your home and our sewer systems! Have you heard of a Fatberg? A Fatberg is a rocklike mass accumulation of grease, nonbiological waste, and such items as the ones described above. In fact, a 90,000-pound Fatberg (the size of a municipal bus) was recently removed from the London Sewer.

Copywriter and marketing strategist Sally Sisson and The Responsible Flushing Alliance have engaged EYMER BRAND Laboratories + Think Tank to help educate children about the dangers of using a toilet as a trash can.

The team has created bilingual (English/Spanish) puzzles, maze exercises, coloring pages, word searches, and other paper-based activities for pre-kindergarten children through fifth graders.

The program's star is the villainous and disposable diaper helmeted Clog Monster, who threatens to toss nearly anything and everything into the toilet and down into the sewer!
