Having trouble with a clogged toilet? Instead of reaching for harsh chemicals, try these tips: First, use a plunger with a good seal around the bowl. If that doesn't work, a toilet auger can help break up stubborn blockages. Always avoid flushing anything other than waste and toilet paper. Regular maintenance, like checking for signs of wear, can prevent future clogs. For tough clogs, don’t hesitate to call a professional plumber!
