Ways to clean your kitchen sinks and drains
"You may believe that your kitchen sink is relatively clean given the amount of soap and water that runs through it every day."
You may believe that your kitchen sink is relatively clean given the amount of soap and water that runs through it every day.
That, however, is not the case. Daily rinsing and splashing with dish soap accomplish nothing in terms of cleaning your kitchen sink.
Baking Soda and White Vinegar
It's simple to learn how to clean a kitchen sink drain with baking soda and vinegar.
Plus, the duo does more than just get rid of odors—it's a tried-and-true way to unblock drains.
Remember the 1:2 ratio of baking soda to white vinegar: one part baking soda to two parts white vinegar.
Pour the baking soda down the drain first, then the white vinegar slowly.
Allow 15 minutes for the bubbling duo to work their magic, then flush the drain with boiling water to remove any lingering residue.
Lemon and Vinegar
Cut a lemon into small enough pieces to fit inside ice cube trays to make this drain cleaner for the kitchen sink.
Fill the trays halfway with vinegar and lemon slices. Place them in the freezer overnight to allow for the formation of ice crystals.
To use, simply remove the cubes from the tray and place them in the waste disposal. Turn on cold water and direct the stream down your disposal.
Hot Water and Dish Soap
If you have sewer gnats or foul odors coming from your sink drains, your p-trap is most likely to fault.
Run the hottest tap water you have down your drains before trying anything else since this will release any obstructions.
You can also use boiling water. Pour some grease-fighting dish soap, such as Dawn, down the drain.
If there is a clog, clean it with a plunger before rinsing with hot tap water. After that, wash away any remaining filth and debris with your favorite kitchen sink cleanser.
