EVERY toilet paper should be septic tank (well if you bought the tp in the last few years).

Unless people are useing a roll each time they piss any septic system should be able to handle it.

Some older people think it will clog up the system or the drainage fields. the TP breaks up so fast and so well its not aproblem


RV's have a diffrent syste wich is why you see RV safe TP.

Maybe she isn't not flushing her toilet paper down...maybe it's that she's wrapping her tampon in toilet paper and putting it in the trash...and being considerate so you don't have to look at her bloody tampon.

JUST A THOUGHT FROM A WOMAN'S PERSPECTIVE.

Tell her to use her fingers instead & then she can wash them in the sink.

That's gross. She should be doing it in a cup of some kind - have one of her female friends help her out.

I don't see the big deal. Has no one ever seen scented bags for small trashcans in bathrooms? When I was younger, we'd flush the first couple wipes (you know, the worst), but put any remaining wipes in a trashcan with a scented bag. Our toilet would clog easily and take forever to fill back up so you could flush again...regardless it was a waste of water. Plus I think there were septic tank concerns with the TP, founded or not. Bathroom never stank, and was still clean as long as everyone puts the clean side of your TP wad facing up and the bag was changed before it overflowed.

I'd hate to hear some of your reactions if you ever had to use an old fashioned outhouse (my grandmother had one up until I was about 10 years old).
