You have a slow drain in your bathroom sink or shower. Before you reach for that bottle of harsh, toxic chemical drain cleaner, stop. Those chemicals can damage your pipes, and they're terrible for the environment. There's a simple plumbing trick that costs almost nothing and works wonders on the most common type of clog.

The vast majority of bathroom clogs are caused by a gross combination of hair and soap scum. It builds up over time into a stubborn, slimy blockage. A chemical cleaner might dissolve some of it, but it often just burns a small hole through the middle, and the clog comes back quickly. The secret weapon you need is a simple, cheap plastic tool called a drain snake or hair clog remover.

This thin, flexible strip of plastic has tiny barbs on it. You just feed it down into the drain as far as it will go, wiggle it around, and then pull it back up. You will be absolutely disgusted and amazed at the giant hairball you pull out. It physically removes the entire clog instead of just dissolving a small part of it. It's incredibly effective, it's safe for your pipes, and it will save you a fortune on calling a plumber for a simple problem. Every homeowner should have one of these under their sink.
