Brilio.net - The sink is often used every day, especially by housewives. In addition to washing dishes, the sink is also used to clean food before cooking. Because it is often used, the sink is prone to dirt and the water channel can become clogged.
Sink clogs are usually caused by a buildup of debris, especially food scraps. Many people dump leftover food directly into the sink when washing dishes. It is better to throw leftover food into the trash before washing dishes.
If the sink is already clogged, many people choose to dismantle the drain. However, this requires special skills and a long time to get the drain running smoothly again.
Well, it turns out there is a more practical way to deal with a clogged sink drain. This method was discussed by YouTube user Info Bacan. In his video, this netizen did not dismantle the sink drain at all. Instead, he only relied on one material to fix it. Curious about how to do it?
As reported by BrilioFood from YouTube Info Bacan on Tuesday (10/22), sprinkle caustic soda into the sink drain. Then stir it using an old toothbrush or screwdriver.

Wait and let it sit for 15 minutes to let the caustic soda react. As reported by thespruce.com, caustic soda can help break down clogs in the dishwasher drain.
While waiting, you can put enough water into the pan. Put it on the stove, then boil the water until it boils. When it boils, slowly pour the hot water into the sink drain.

No need to wait long, the results can be seen immediately. The sink drain is now running smoothly again. Food residue, oil, and dirt that has clumped together are also perfectly dissolved by the caustic soda solution.
"The water is flowing smoothly again," he said further.
