Fruit stickers and jar stickers

The Need to Properly Dispose of Fruit and Jar Stickers
Many people overlook the small stickers on fruits and jars, thinking they are harmless. However, these should go in the trash, not down the drain. Even tiny stickers can cause big plumbing trouble. The glue on these stickers can build up in pipes over time, sticking to other debris and causing clogs. The sticker material—often plastic—breaks down very slowly in nature. This can lead to pollution and harm wildlife if it enters waterways. To avoid this, always remove stickers from fruits and jars and throw them in the trash. This small step helps protect plumbing and the environment.
