NORTHUMBRIAN Water posted a picture of the latest blockage they had to clear as they declared Redcar the worst area for causing them by flushing wet wipes.
The water company posted a picture to their Facebook page to show residents what happens when non-flushable wet wipes are put down the toilet.
The firm said: "Look at what we had to clear out of our network in East Cleveland a couple of days ago. Absolutely clogged with wipes.
"The TS10 area of Redcar was one of the worst areas for blockages caused by wet wipes in 2019."
To counter the problem Northumbrian Water has been handing out free bathroom bins as part of their Bin The Wipe campaign "so people can make a simple change and stop flushing wipes."
