    You can try to pour a half of box of baking soda in the toilet and on top a half of bottle of white vinegar and let it sit for 1/2hour. and then flush.

    Ann,Ann,Ann. He's not asking for a salad dressing recipe. He just wants his sh**er unclogged ;-)

    Fish tape is what plumbers use.Works EVERY TIME.

    Buy a cheap plumbing fish tape. Guaranteed to fix your clog.

    maybe its your mother-in-law fell down it last night looking to see what was blocking it .Now you have a bigger block?.only kidding .Try costic soda its strong watch you eyes and throat close mouth good luck next step plumber

    Had that problem.  Modified input PVC line to Commode by adding a PVC Tee.  One output goes to turn-off for commode.  The other output went into additional PVC tubing to an easily accessable point where a  t\urn off valve plus a lever operatred ball cock is positioned.  This feeds a few feet of half inch clear plastic tubing using proper couplings available at Home Depot. 


    When predicament is present.  A three step process makes everybody happy.  FIRST! Insert the pastic tubing end into waste line.  SECOND! Turn the valve on.  THIRD!  ZAP the blockage by throwing the lever of the ball cock on.  WHOOSH GOES THE CLOG!   


    PS.  The tubing is easy to clean 'cause Mama says, "Wash your hands!"

    Way too complicated for most people.But a great idea if you're a handyman with lots of spare time in your hands.

    What the heck is fish tape?

    Actually fish tape is what's used to electrical wires through conduits. Snakes are used for plumbing. They essentially do the same job by running through the pipe.
