Only flush what you're supposed to, says MUA

The Manx Utilities Authority has launched an appeal to make sure people only put what they're supposed to down the drain.

The organisation's launched a Facebook advertising campaign reminding people that things like wet wipes, fat and fuel shouldn't be put down drains.

It says doing so damages the Island's environment and people should bin it rather than flush it.

In its post, the MUA says the Island's sewers are inundated with items they're not equipped to deal with - and people should only flush human waste and toilet paper.
