Rabbi Willig does it for rabbis.

for i think uh a national council of young israel for for rabbis he does it once a month i think and i was listening to this month and he was asked that shailen he said it is because the guy who runs the business had to invest in the equipment that's necessary the shovels the snow plows whatever it is that he's using so that is so okay so i was wrong um anyway what about snowman so for two there are two parts of the question first of all is snow moxa

why toilet paper and tissues are not Makabal Tumah.

And I heard from Rabbi First from Chicago that he remembers Rav Moshe looking at Maros that were on toilet paper.
