Causes of Sewage Spills


Sewers are the main pipelines that carry waste water from your homes or workplace. Sewage spills do not only carry horrible smells but also carry diseases like Hepatitis A, Tetanus, Giardia, and many more that can make you extremely ill.

So what causes these sewers to spill or overflow?? Some of the reasons of sewer spills are: - 

a)  Pipe blockages are one of the main reasons to overflowing sewers. These pipe blockages are caused due to fatty foods thrown down the drains. 

-    These fatty foods can form a lump large enough to block the drains causing it overflow. Hence don’t throw you fatty foods down the drain, instead, have a separate waste bin for your unwanted food.

-    Another reason for blockages is due to toilets being used as a trash can. So do not dump stuff down your toilet that can cause the drains in the pipes to get blocked.

b)    Another cause of sewage spills is due to rains. The excess water from rains enters the sewer drains causing them to overflow. This however can not be prevented by us as it is a natural disaster. All you can do is call professionals to take care of the sewage.
