The sink is the most difficult thing to clean in the kitchen. Since the sink is used for washing dishes and cutting fish, it gets dirty quickly. Not only does it get dirty, but sometimes the sink gets clogged. Then the water builds up and causes a foul smell in the kitchen. How about some powders to unclog a clogged sink and prevent it from getting clogged?

Vinegar

If the water in the sink is blocked, first remove the food debris from it. Then pour some hot water into it. This will help dissolve dirt such as grease. Pour one-third of baking soda and vinegar into a bowl and mix. Then pour this mixture into the sink. Leave it for 15 minutes. Then rinse with hot water. This helps to open the clogged sink. Clean the sink once a week by mixing hot water and dishwashing soap.

Caustic Soda

Add three cups of caustic soda to three liters of water. Pour this into the kitchen sink and rinse with boiling water after 30 minutes. This helps in removing the block easily. Put utensils in the sink to wash only after throwing the food items in the trash. This is to prevent the sink from becoming clogged.
