Our environmental inspector has literally put his foot in it! Chunks of fats, oils, and grease (FOG) pulled out of the sewer from a pollution event 👎🏼
#sewers#pollution#fatsoilsgrease
When food businesses allow their fats, oils, and grease (FOG) to escape down their plugholes and drains, it causes nasty blockages that lead to sewer floods and potentially pollution of watercourses.

Do you recognise any of these bathroom bandits? Wet wipes, cotton buds and sanitary products– are some of the loo-sual suspects that end up blocking our bogs. 🚽 This #Unblocktober let’s all commit to being first-class flushers, and put these toilet terrors in the bin. 🗑️
Batman and Ro-bin 🦸 Now you don’t need a cape or stretchy leggings to help save your neighbourhood from blocked drains…just a kitchen bin.
This #Unblocktober fight fatbergs by popping your cooking crooks such as fats, oils and greases in the 🗑️ rather than down your sink.
We love this #LEGO idea that playfully highlights the problem of #fatburgs and the essential #water industry workers who keep our water running. If you're a fan then why not vote for the design to bring it to life!

This photo shows a drain at the premises of a well-known restaurant brand. They’ve essentially been using the drain as a bin. The kitchen staff said the floor is also swept into this drain 🧹 This is what could cause a blockage ❌

Fats, oils, and grease (FOG) in the sewer network. On behalf of @stwater, we’re off to see where this is coming from 🕵🏼♂️

Get a sink strainer!
That’s what we said to this food business owner.
A simple way to make sure food debris like this doesn’t end up causing blockages 👍🏼
