    I briefly worked for a plumber during my college days to make money. He said the people who kept him in business were people who poured grease down the drain and also people who flushed tampons.

      People who pour grease down the drain have definitely never unclogged a drain before.

      Usually something like half fibers (hair, tampons, “flushable” wipes, etc), half grease and fats.

      If it’s a solid at room temp, it probably shouldn’t go down the drain.
