Sewage pump for my downstairs, below grade, bathroom has gone out. Crappy day. Literally.

Mildred's mother. Apparently she flushed a wad of carpet fibers, small piece of rope (who the heck flushes a piece of rope???!!) and some other stuff down the toilet, while helping Kim clean. After spending $300.00 buying a new pump, I decided to again inspect the old pump, even though I had already tested it, this time inspecting the water inlet a little closer, before opening the box on the new one. I saw a small piece of rope sticking out. I pulled it and a wad of junk bigger than both my fists put together came out. I again tested the old pump, minus the clog, and it worked great. So ultimately it's only going to cost me the price of a tube of sealant to seal the plastic lid back down.

I kind of think part of this was the remainder of a wash cloth too.

About a hundred. I see why I had a plumber tell me several years ago that he charges $500.00 just to pull the lid off.

Buddy of mines cousin does that for a living...a DAMN good living...Said tampon strings have made him what him a fortune Tampons are our biggest culprit for our residential grinders. Mop strings, yes Mop Strings, are the biggest clogger for our Lift Station pumps and they foul the floats and mixer motors inside the Treatment Plants tanks and clog the pipes that house the Level transducers in those tanks. I've seen everything from nerf footballs to women's panties to entire beach towels to 2x4s pulled from the inside of our Lift Station Pumps. Was at a lift station in San Destin once and they pulled out several dozen of those squeaky letters and blocks. It was also there that the Nerf Football had wedged inside the pump impellers and burnt up a $12000.00 pump. Some little kid is minus the entire squeaky alphabet, some letter blocks and his nerf football! LOl
Hunt'em hard when they are hard to hunt but never, ever hardly hunt!
