    Toilet removal

    Our home has a toilet in our basement that never gets used and I want to remove it for good. Is there something I need to use to cover and seal it to prevent sewer gas from coming into the house?

    Thanks in advance

    You can use a test plug.
    I stayed at a Holiday Inn Express last night.
    Now I can Plumb!
