JAMMING things under the sink

It can be a great source of storage, but a NO NO!Items under the sink can get in the way, can push on and be a risk of dislodging the plumbing traps.

Check those outdoor hoses

They may not get enough attention!A leaky hose bib can be a huge drain on your water tank, and you would not hear the dripping like on a kitchen faucet.

Naturally freshen the garbage disposal

Drop in a few citrus peels!Orange oil found in orange peels is a great degreaser and fragrance, leaving the blades a little cleaner and smelling better.

Avoid pouring grease, oil & fat down the drain

Oils solidify as they cool!Wipe out any dishes using oil or grease and discard. Those fats down the drain leave less room for water drainage and could mean a backup or clog.

fav

Keep the bathroom clutter free

Believe it or not, what you flush is important!Cotton balls, Q-tips, baby wipes, tampons are all possible toilet clogs and should be disposed of in the trash can.
