Eco friendly shower drain un-cloggers: homemade solution or store bought?

Posted by EFPBlogger
Traveling Girl asked:


My shower drain remains clogged. I don’t let very much hair go down (but my hair is long) so I don’t know if it is the hair or just gunk. After I put something down there and let it work overnight I usually have a normal running drain for MAYBE 3 showers.

A lot of store bought products are not safe to use on drains and more importantly the environment…Any ideas for something environmentally safe?

    Pour bicarb soda down the drain followed by vinegar. It will foam up a bit but it cleans the drains.
