For sinks, use a hand snake first. Remove the stopper and force the snake down into the drain as far as it will go. For tough clogs remove the trap below the sink or tub.


For toilets, a plunger works best. Make sure that the plunger seals well and use short quick strokes.

Uh, Marilee, quick question.... how do you do that with out drowning the little guy?

I mean I tried what you said but after about 3 or 4 minuts the little guy didn't look so good, and the sink was still clogged... We just let the snake go in the back yard and used Drano.
