Yep, baking soda and vinegar is fine for mild stuff, but for stubborn clogs, it's mostly just a science project in your drain. Enzyme cleaners are great—just be patient, they're slower but safer in the long run.
Yeah, enzyme cleaners have saved me a few plumber calls over the years. Definitely slower, but worth it if you're patient. Ever tried those drain sticks with enzymes? I've had mixed results—sometimes they're great, sometimes meh. Curious if anyone's found a brand that's consistently reliable...

Honestly, I wouldn't rely too heavily on those drain sticks. Tried a few brands myself and found them pretty hit-or-miss. Regular baking soda and vinegar flushes seem more consistent and cheaper in the long run...

I've had similar experiences with those enzyme sticks—sometimes they seem promising, but other times... eh, not so much. Honestly, regular maintenance with baking soda and vinegar is usually more reliable. Also, if you're looking for something eco-friendly and effective, a simple drain catcher to prevent hair and debris from going down in the first place works wonders. Easier to prevent clogs than fight them later, right?
Good points about prevention—those little drain catchers save a lot of headaches later. But speaking from experience, baking soda and vinegar won’t always cut it if you’ve got tougher build-up like soap scum or grease deeper down. Have you tried boiling water flushes every couple weeks? Curious if anyone’s found a reliable eco-friendly alternative for stubborn clogs without resorting to harsher chemicals...
