Ha ha! Hopefully it will just go straight down!
Your toilet becomes clogged... Or if it makes it...then its gone =].
remove your toilet and get it out you are going to have a a plug in your waste system,latex does not dissolve.
if you have a septic tank it goes into there, if you have a sewer it ends up in the grates at the recycling plant
It usually plugs up the "S" trap.
If you can't plunge it through,
call a plumber.
(or do what I do. Take everything
apart, then call a plumber )
It goes to the sewer where it gets snapped up by a small alligator who lives there, the alligator then dies, and you have done every sewer worker a favor.
a hand will follow it...
it will clog it ..and if it hasnt yet it may later... it will fill up with the crap..and the toilet paper used and can clog it..then youve got a big expensive mess to deal with..suggestions?? dont ever flush a glove or anythign down the toilet thats not suppose to be there.hahah silly
I have seen much smaller items block sewers, dint flush anything other than poo and paper, are you listening ladies!
I just saw a news story about this on Good Morning America. Someone flushed a latex glove down a toilet in an airplane. The toilet over flooded so much that the water/sewage was running down the walkway of the airplane. The plane was in the air for 7 hours like that and no one could use the bathroom. How horrible is that.
