I have used it many times for all sorts of clogs on drains toilets and plumbing lanning

You can also get "tea balls" that hold your loose leaf tea inside of it; to put in your cup or tea pot for tea! I got both the strainer & the tea ball at thrift stores for pennies; good luck on getting your drain unclogged! mickle

heat a little water 2 cups is fine to boiling; then place in the sink that is clogged; to it add 1 c of baking soda; & then add 1 c of vinegar; it will have a ‘volcano’ effect; bubbling up & over everything so be sure that the pan is in the sink to begin with or you will end up with a huge mess; part of it will go down the drain; empty the rest & let it do it’s thing for about 1/2 hour; then try flushing with water; (next time, use a strainer for your tea if you have one; if not, a simple light weight rag or coffee filter will work!
