To ask what do you do with a poo that won’t flush

[Ladynana]

Exactly that. What do you do when your poo won’t flush despite multiple attempts at flushing?

Poo stick (DD2 must literally empty half her colon at a time - I'd show you the picture but then awkward questions like 'did you put gloves on to add the googly eyes?' will be asked yes I did).

Bamboo cane kept in the back of the flower bed. poke-poke-poke and a good rinse then it goes back outside in the soil for a while. The bacteria out there can deal with the biological residue.

I usually put on a marigold and chuck it in a carrier bag then in the kitchen bin

soap (laundry powder sprinkled on would work) and warm water.
leave a few min then flush.
and eat more veg

Just pour bleach on top of it and it will flush.

OP, on the slight offchance this is a genuine question and you're neither the PT or 8...what is going on in your head that makes you think that your problem is a good conversation starter?

Oh give it a rest! It's life, it happens!

I work at a school and have had this problem many times. I have found that a bucket of very hot water flushed from about six inches from the bowl works very well. make sure you keep your face to one side. Occasionally it takes a couple of times. Then flush it, it takes everything with it. then clean as usual.

Poke it with a stick, obvs.

A coathanger will do if you haven't got a stick.

But really, poking it until it turns into faecal hell-soup is the only way.

A jug of hot tap water purée from day hip height. It breaks it down ready to flush. No stick, knife, coat hanger or touching of the poo in any way. I've done this many times with perfect results.

Yabu. Google it.

Yeah, water poured from height. I've never in my life had to manually slice up a poo. < not envy.

Omg knew just where this was going, wasn't disappointed 🤢🤣

OP, in any such situation, just ask yourself WWKMD (What would Kate Middleton Do?).

I use an old toothbrush to chop it up (which I then, of course, throw away)

I may add it’s never one of mine, usually one of the ds’s! (Poo’s I mean not toothbrushes)

Some useful tips, thanks all

I couldn’t resist having a joke. But in all seriousness, if you have a stick or branch lying in your garden, use it to mush the poo up and then flush.

As somebody else said, please use a plastic bag and then dump the stick in your garden waste bin. Don’t put it back in the garden after it being down the toilet

And might I add.. don’t put the plastic bag In the garden waste bin unless it’s a biodegradable bag!

All this faffing is easily avoided by having a toilet brush that can be used to push it down. Just make sure it is covered in toilet roll to avoid direct contact.

What if an army of servants who have signed non-disclosure agreements is not available?

Hot tap water purée? Is that a new recipe for when the supermarket shelves are bare?

I knew someone once who had a poo at someone's house and it wouldn't flush so she fished it out with her hands, wrapped it in toilet roll and placed it in the bathroom bin

Well every day is a school day!
I'm 48 and have never faced this problem.

I fill a 2 gallon bucket with water and pour it down the loo.

No poking, pushing, chopping or any kind of physical contact needed.

Hot water then flush again

Actually, this is a really good question, and some helpful answers. Obviously I have my own method of dealing with an unflushable, but some of the solutions suggested here will be borne in mind for when the issue next arises.
