Hi friend,
Sewage is the municipal waste matter that is carried away in sewers and drains. It includes both liquid and solid wastes, rich in organic matter and microbes. Many of these microbes are pathogenic and can cause several water- borne diseases. Sewage water is a major cause of polluting drinking water. Hence, it is essential that sewage water is properly collected, treated, and disposed.

Sewage is source where you find all the unuseful stuff of ur house in liquid or in semi liquid form.
It could be in form of a pipeline etc that leads out of ur house.
Becz it holds the most unuseful stuffs out from our house like pee, poop, liquid from from washing machine etc, it gives very harmful insects and microbes a perfect place to live and breed in. Thats how sewages are harmful to us.
Hope this satisfies the need.
P. S. : the answer written above doesnt have any bookish thing. That is the rough brief of sewage.
