With the tips below to unclog the drain, you can easily apply them without having to spend money calling a plumber to your home to handle it.

Use warm water and lemon

Using warm water is an effective way to deal with clogged drains and is used by many people. This method is often used to deal with clogged sinks due to grease and food waste. However, you can still use it to deal with clogged bathroom drains.

You just need to prepare a kettle of warm water and pour it directly into the drain to remove dirt. If the problem is more serious, you can pour in a little lemon juice to increase the effectiveness. Note, when doing this, you need to wear a mask to avoid inhaling the smell of the drain.

Use baking soda with vinegar and hot water

Baking soda is also a magical ingredient to help unclog drains. Prepare water, baking soda and a bottle of vinegar. First, pour a sufficient amount of baking soda directly into the pipe. Then slowly pour in the vinegar you have prepared. Vinegar contains acid, so when combined with baking soda, it will foam, speed up the process of softening waste, promoting stronger chemical reactions

After waiting for about 5-10 minutes, pour some warm water into the sink. Because warm water when combined with the above ingredients will help the waste disappear.

Use a clothes hanger

You just need to straighten the clothes hanger, bend one end to form a hook (like the letter J). If necessary, wear rubber gloves and have a bag ready to collect the trash taken from the drain. Remove the screw covering the drain if any and place them neatly in a safe place, avoiding dropping them into the drain. Then, slowly lower the hook end down the water pipe, and “fish” for any obstructions in the drain. After feeling that it seems okay, just slowly pull the clothes hanger up and flush the water.
