THE FIDO HYPOTHESIS
Our waterways are adversely affected by dog waste. Scientists have even labeled this concept
"The Fido Hypothesis." Dog waste contains E. coli, Salmonella, Tuberculosis and Bellyworm.
Untreated dog waste is washed into rivers, lakes, bays and oceans by rain. Though the EPA is gradually
requiring states to comply with the Clean Water Act currently most dog waste sits in plastic wrapped
time-bombs in landfills. Fecal coliform contamination from pet waste accounts for up to 90% of all
bacterial watershed pollution in urban areas in the U.S.
Fortunately there is an easy way to deal with pet waste. We can utilize our waste water treatment systems and
treat it as we do to human waste - flush it!
It is for these reasons we developed FLUSHADOOs.
FLUSHADOOs are made from a special water soluble material. They are strong and flexible
yet odorless and non-toxic. You can be sure they will...
- Never Clog Pipes
- Be Safe to Flush
- Never Leak
- Travel Well in their Pocket Sized Case
- Biodegrade
FLUSHADOO protects our planet, be GREEN and join the movement!

A Plastic Planet
Sadly, plastic bags are both prolific and devastating. During the 1,000 years they take to decompose
they leak a toxic mix of plastic particles and dog waste.
In 2001 Japanese researchers reported that plastic debris in seawater act
like chemical sponges, absorbing a million times the amount of deadly compounds such as PCBs and DDT.
This cycle ruins groundwater and poisons the food chain. These plastic
pieces are known to threaten sea turtles, whales, cows, goats and other mammals.
