How to remove unpleasant odor from the sink: a penny trick
If an unpleasant smell starts coming from the kitchen sink, now is the time to act, otherwise the stench will spread throughout the entire apartment.
This problem is faced by both apartment dwellers and homeowners. Particularly persistent aromas can even be absorbed into curtains, towels and other textiles.
Pouring dishwashing detergent down the drain won't do much good. The pleasant smell will disappear within the next hour, and the stench will return.
Experienced housewives advise using table salt in this case. Use ½ of a glass of this ingredient.
This volume is poured into the drain and left for 60 minutes. Then it remains for 2-3 minutes to turn on hot water to flush the pipe.
Another time-tested remedy is citric acid. It is also poured into the drain, but hot water is poured in immediately. After these manipulations, unpleasant odors will disappear.
Dry mustard powder is a natural antiseptic and a scourge of bacteria. Pour a few spoons into the drain and then pour boiling water. But the method is suitable for metal pipes. It is better not to test this product on plastic.
