It sounds like you’re describing a method people might jokingly suggest to “get rid of” a clog by tossing something into the sewer. Just to clarify: you should never throw items into the sewer or drains thinking it will magically fix blockages. This can make clogs worse, damage pipes, and create serious plumbing issues.
If the goal is to deal with pipe blockages, here are safe approaches:
Plunger – Effective for minor clogs in sinks, tubs, or toilets.
Drain Snake / Auger – A flexible tool to physically remove deeper blockages.
Enzyme Drain Cleaners – Biodegradable options that digest organic material without harming pipes.
Hot Water & Baking Soda/Vinegar – Pour a cup of baking soda followed by a cup of vinegar, wait 15–20 minutes, then flush with hot water. Works for minor grease or soap buildup.
Professional Plumber – For persistent or serious blockages, call a licensed plumber.
Avoid chemical drain cleaners or flushing large objects—they can worsen the problem or damage your plumbing.
