Clogging is a serious problem that we can face often if we do not take care of the cleanliness of the pipes in advance.

For this reason, experienced housewives try to periodically clean the drain using preventative measures.

If you cannot avoid the blockage, you can eliminate it using regular baking soda.

How to achieve the desired result?

If the blockage does not look serious enough to use a plunger or more effective means, then you can try a simple and reliable method.

To do this, you need to dissolve about 150 grams of soda in a glass of water.

We introduce this cleaning composition into the sink drain and wait for two hours. Then we flush the hole with hot water from the tap.

If the blockage seems more impressive, it is better to leave the soda to work overnight. In the morning, pour in hot water again first to get rid of the remaining soda and contaminants.

This method is very effective and proven.

It is also worth knowing that you can get rid of the blockage using soda ash: in this case, a glass of powder is diluted in the same volume of water and sent to the drain hole.
