Avoid disposing food scraps or bits down the drain - Food scraps and other food items that you dispose down the drain can buildup over time, eventually clogging your drains.

Clear out the hair from your bathroom drains on a daily basis - Hair, soap, scum, and other greasy materials are known to be the root cause for a drain blockage in your bathrooms. Clear out these mess on a daily basis, after your shower, or even your face wash routine.

Avoid flushing any paper or other products down your toilets - Paper towels, sanitary napkins, and other products that aren’t meant to be flushed down the toilets, should be disposed off properly in the right garbage bins. Avoid dumping them down the toilet as this can cause a majorly clogged drain over time if not immediately! Make it a good bathroom habit to dispose these items off in a proper manner. Practises like these will not just ease your day but also add to your acquired values.

Don’t pour oil or other greasy items down your kitchen drains - Oil or other greasy items that go down the drain will stick to your drain pipes and prevent water from flowing down them. This can cause cases of blockage and eventually, clog your drains. Avoid pouring oils or any oily substance for that matter, down your sinks or your drains. Separate them beforehand to prevent your drains from clogging and overflowing.
-
Practise pouring a kettle of hot water down the drain on a regular basis - Pouring a kettle of hot water down the drains will wash away any debris or other items that are likely to buildup and cause blockages in your drain pipes. It is also an effective method widely used by people all over the world for unclogging drains that have already been clogged.
