Never Pour Bleach Down Your Household Drain
And these uses won’t present any risk. Just like cooking oil, bleach is one of those things you shouldn’t pour into your sink. You should also never use bleach to unclog your drains. Doing so can even burst your drain pipes, and you’ll be left with a nasty and expensive mess.
How do you deodorize a sink drain?
Deodorize your sink by pouring 1 cup of baking soda into the drain. Heat 1 to 2 cups of distilled white vinegar in the microwave until the liquid is warm. Pour it into the drain and allow the mixture to fizz for about five minutes to loosen up any stuck-on debris. Rinse out the drain with running cold water.
Why does my kitchen sink smell like septic?
Sewer Smells
This happens when the drain between the sink and the sewer becomes clogged. Your house plumbing is designed to contain harmful gas, flush away sewage and provide you with clean and potable water. If the sewer gas is smelling in your kitchen, the smell can be leaking from the sink trap or plumbing vent.
