Alrighty, I’m back with another Quick-Tip-Tuesday!
The quick-tip I have for you today, is a cheap and natural way to clear clogged drains and pipes.
All you need is vinegar and baking soda.
I am going to clean the drain that has my garbage disposal in it. I love my garbage disposal, but greasy food particles can build up in it. Causing the water flow to slow down, and the kitchen to stink!
Because the drain hole for the disposer is so large, I put the plug in first. Then I pour approximately 1 cup of the baking soda on top of the plug.
If I wasn’t going to take pictures I would have just let the soda fall in. Next it’s time to pour in about 1 cup of vinegar. As soon as they start reacting together, I pulled the plug and let it all roll down the pipes. It’s amazing what a difference just a little soda and vinegar can make.
This pic is right before I yanked the plug. As long as the soda won’t fall to the bottom of the pipes and get wet, you don’t need to plug the drain.
I do this to clean all the drains in my house and it really works! Haven’t had to call a plumber yet. Oh wait, that would be my hubby. 
So that is my quick tip for you today! Blessings

Hello, my name is Kendra. I am married to an amazing young man
named Jason, whom I lovingly call hubby when I’m writing. The only way I could ever explain our relationship is to use words like: crazy, silly, funny… well you get the point. He’s perfect for me! 
So smart! I pinned this for next time my kitchen sink gets all gunky

I’m going to have to try this in my disposal sink. Personally I think the disposal is worthless except for helping the sink to drain faster when I turn it on. I bet it’s clogged. I’ll add vinegar to my next store list.

It could have a lot of build up in it that this would help. However it could also be that it is old and needs replaced, that does happen sometimes
Great tip! We have had to call the plumber before. Sigh… Thanks for sharing at Toot Your Horn Tuesday

You have a lot of uses for the vinegar, don’t you, Kendra? I remember your post on Acid Reflux.
Another thing to make a garbage disposer smell good, if it isn’t plugged up, is to grind a lemon rind, if your disposer is strong enough. That will clear most any bad odors.
Baking soda and vinegar are my 2 favorite household cleaners! And they marry so perfectly as a drain cleaner, don’t they? Thanks for sharing at Tiny Tip Tuesday! Hope you’ll join us again next week!
