I realize this forum is mostly for toilet performance, but I was wondering what plumbers think of these "flushable" cleaning pads (Scrubbing Bubbles Flushable, and I think there are other brands). Basically, they are a paper product with some cleaner impregnated in them, and about 2" x 2" x 1/2".
Are they likely to cause clogs if actually flushed? It seems like they should be fine, but (correct me if I'm wrong) I think plumbers frown on flushing tampons, which are also OK to flush if you believe the manufacturer.
I use those cleaning pads in my current toilet because I dislike the idea of a reuseable toilet brush, but I'm anticipating possibly needing to clean my new toilet more often due to the small water spot. The pads, while inadequate for a thorough cleaning (they are too soft), are great for quick touch ups.
