Follow Up: Possible solution for stinky kitchen sink drains?

Jul 15, 2006 0 Replies

I posted a while back: I'm having a stinky kitchen drain problem. It's a double bowl kitchen sink with a food disposer on one side. The black ABS drain pipes are gunked up with rot/slime. I've already tried flushing with bleach. but that doesn't do the job.



I found a very simple solution. I used a long flexible bottle brush dipped in bleach to scrub down the sides of the drain without the disposer, and then bent the brush into a U to scrub down the sides of the drain with the disposer (to get under the disposal's rubber rim). Worked like a charm. Of course, it took several dippings/brushings.
