Keeping our homes clean and fresh is a true delight. However, we may sometimes encounter an unpleasant odor in the kitchen or bathroom, even after cleaning all the surfaces. This could be due to a buildup of residues in the sink drain, which can lead to clogged pipes and hinder water flow.

Luckily, for less severe cases, there are simple tricks that can unclog drains and eliminate bad odors in just a few minutes. You can easily do it yourself without the need for chemicals or calling a plumber.

Here’s an effective DIY trick to keep your drain and pipes clean, quick and easy:

Ingredients:

  • Half a glass of baking soda
  • Half a glass of vinegar

Instructions:

  1. Pour the baking soda down the sink, making sure to get a good amount into the drain.
  2. Pour in the vinegar, which will create an effervescent reaction when it comes into contact with the baking soda.
  3. Take a sponge and use the vinegar-baking soda combination to clean the internal surfaces of the sink. This powerful mixture effectively removes dirt, disinfects, and leaves the metal shining.
  4. After about 5 minutes, pour plenty of hot water into the sink to rinse and remove all residues and bad odors.

To prevent the accumulation of food or other residues in the sink drain, we recommend applying this trick regularly, without waiting for unpleasant smells or clogs to occur.

With this simple and eco-friendly trick, you can effectively tackle the bad odors that may arise from your home sink. Enjoy a clean and fresh environment without the need for a plumber!
