#4 Easy drain fixer

As much as most chemical solutions do work when it comes to cleaning your drain, it can also be the case that the solution you are using is toxic. Plumbers all over the country have advised against using very harsh chemicals to clean your drain as they can cause damage to your pipes, which will translate into expensive repairs and plumbing issues. This is why you should be looking for a more environmentally (and plumbing) friendly solution.

Using baking soda is going to be really easy, and all you need is hot water, the powder, and vinegar. Boil your water and then pour it down the drain you need to clean, then follow it up with a cup of baking soda. In a separate bowl, mix equal parts water and vinegar, and add the mixture after you’ve poured the powder down the drain. Let it sit for a couple of minutes. Rinse with hot water, and you’re done!

No chemicals are needed, and you will also get rid of any unpleasant smells at the same time!
