Effective and eco‑friendly drain solution: Aspirin and vinegar
A clogged drain in the bathroom is a problem that can make everyday life difficult. Instead of reaching for harsh chemicals, try a proven home method using products you already have.
Hair, soap residue, and cosmetics—all of these accumulate in the drain, leading to clogs. Although there are many chemical agents available on the market for unclogging pipes, many of them can be harmful to health and the environment. Fortunately, there is a simple, safe, and effective way to deal with this issue.
Regular maintenance
To avoid serious clogs, it's worth regularly maintaining the cleanliness of the drain. Once a week, pour a pack of baking soda into the drain and follow it with a cup of hot vinegar. This mixture will trigger a chemical reaction that helps dissolve accumulated debris. After about 15 minutes, flush the drain with hot water. This technique will not only unclog the pipes but also neutralize unpleasant odours.
Pour them into the shower, and you won't regret it
If maintenance isn't enough and the drain is already significantly clogged, reach for aspirin. Crush two or three tablets and pour them into the drain, then add a cup of hot vinegar. The reaction between these ingredients will help dissolve even stubborn debris, such as hair or cosmetic residue. After 15 minutes, rinse the drain with hot water. This method is not only effective but also safe for the pipes and the environment.
