Hairy Drains

[bob n pam]

Okay, we all have hair (most of us, anyway) and hopefully we all shower. Our shower drain is forever getting clogged with hair and slowing the draining process considerably. In the past I have had to take off the screen and pull it out with tweezers. Yuck. Last week I went baby shopping with my daugher and the impending twins and lo and behold, they still make bottle brushes. So I bought one to clean the drain of the bathroom sink and it came with a little bitty one to clean bottle nipples which works great in cleaning the hair out of the shower drain. So much better than the tweezers.

Pam you can also buy a strainer type thingy that sets on top of the drain and doesn't let the hair in. I see them in those special catalogs I get all the time like Walter Drake.

Oh gawd.... I just about gag thinking about cleaning out sink drains. That is one job I won't do at all. Years ago I would pour either drano or a can of coca-cola down the sinks every other day to keep them clean.

Yuck.... I have to get off this subject before I get sick!....*LOL

I also use the hair catchers for drains in the shower both at home and in the coach. Seems to really do the job. I found mine at Target for less than $5 each. Would sure rather have those than have to clean the shower drain in either house.

WalMart has a long white flat plastic thing about 18 inches long 1/2 " wide and 1/16" thick with reverse barbs on it. You stick it down the drain and when you remove it the hair comes with it !! just a few bucks!

I have never heard of using coca-cola on drains. It is a messy job that I could do without too!

Good idea about coca cola in the drain but how long do you keep it in before you know the job is done.
