Our team at Hire a Housewife includes drain cleaning as a regular part of our service. This not only eliminates odors but also promotes faster drainage and reduces the likelihood of clogs.**

If you prefer to do it yourself, here are the tools you'll need:

  • Toothbrush (keep it in your cleaning kit to avoid any mix-ups with the kids!)

  • Vinegar

  • Baking soda

  • Hot water

  • All-purpose cleaner

Here's a simple DIY method to get rid of and prevent smells in a shower drain:

  1. Remove the drain cover and clean it thoroughly using hot water and an all-purpose cleaner. A toothbrush can be especially effective for reaching those hard-to-access areas. Consider using flat-headed bamboo sticks for added precision.

  2. Add baking soda and vinegar. Pour 1 cup of baking soda into the drain, followed by 1 cup of distilled white vinegar.

  3. Flush the drain by pouring hot water down it.
