Catching a whiff of a stinky drain is unpleasant but most drains can be cleaned without harsh chemicals. Smelly drains are often the result of buildup from hair soap grease food and other debris. The classic way to handle this problem is with vinegar or lemon juice. For stubborn clogs use a drain auger to clear most drains or take apart the P trap to deodorize a sink drain. Then treat your drain regularly to prevent foul odors and clogs from coming back. Pourtap water down the drain. Turn the tap to thewater setting possible and let it run for a few minutes. Thewater will loosen soap scum and any other foul smelling debris in the drain.
Add and one half cup 133.6 g of coarse salt to the drain. Salt acts as an abrasive on debris clinging to the sides of drains. Even if this debris isnt the immediate cause of the smell it eventually attracts smelly bacteria and even forms clogs.
Sprinkle and one half cup 90.0 g of baking soda down the drain. Remove the cover or stopper if your drain has one. Pour the baking soda out gradually trying to get as much of it as you can down the drain. A lot of it will end up on the sides where the unpleasant debris and bacteria collect.
Pour 2 cups 470 mL of white vinegar or lemon juice down the drain. Both vinegar and lemon juice react to baking soda right away. Cover the drain with its stopper or place a towel over it to force the bubbling mixture down the pipe. The mixture will deodorize as well as treats impending clogs.
Wait at least 10 minutes for the cleaner to take effect. Running water through the drain pipe too soon washes away the cleaner so give it plenty of time to settle in. Keep the drain covered to prevent air and any remaining cleaner from coming back up.
Flush the drain with morewater. Turn on thewater or heat another pot of it on the stove. Pour it down the drain letting it wash away the cleaner and any gunk in the pipe. Most if not all of the odor will be gone.It is important to never pour grease down your drain
Fortunately, cleaning your P-trap is a simple process and is an excellent way to deodorize a smelly shower drain
