 I didn’t believe it when I first heard about it. Granted, I have read all over the internet about the wonders of vinegar and baking soda that goes beyond cooking and baking. Then one day, I was faced with a blocked kitchen sink and a pile of dishes that needed to be sorted. So I decided to give it a try.

This is a tried and tested method that is guaranteed to unblock your drain in a matter of minutes.

Tools

-Baking soda

-White Vinegar

-Hot water

Steps

1. Pour half a cup of baking soda down the drain that you want to unblock.

2. After a few seconds, pour a cup of white vinegar down the drain. This will create a sizzling chemical reaction.

3. Leave the drain for at least 30 minutes.

4. Boil a kettle of water and pour down the blocked drain.

5. Leave for a little while, and your drain will be back to good in no time.

I’ve done this so many times; except your house has a very serious drainage problem, this simple trick should unblock your drains anytime.
