Throw some salt down the shower drain, why do so many people do it? | March 2, 2025

Salt can become an excellent ally not only in nutrition, for food preservation and also used in shower or sink drains.

Salt in the shower
Sink and shower drains can easily be a vehicle for insects such as cockroaches, carriers of bacteria that adapt to any environment and reproduce quickly, spreading diseases among the inhabitants of a home.

Bacteria and cockroaches in the pipes of the house
One of the main places where we can find cockroaches are the pipes of our home. How can we eliminate insects and bacteria that can make their home in our homes?

The option of using chemicals may certainly seem like the best and fastest option, but it would not be a good idea, if we think about our health and that of the planet.

To avoid the presence of bacteria and the possible arrival of cockroaches in homes, the first thing we must do is periodically and thoroughly clean the drains to reach even the hard-to-reach areas.

Sink Drain
The areas where a deeper and constant cleaning must be carried out are the kitchen, where food remains must be removed, and in the bathroom, for example in the shower drain, due to the humidity inherent to this space in the house.
Cleaning products must include ammonia, because it helps to thoroughly clean and disinfect any space.

Damp spaces need to be dried, so it is advisable to remove all moisture from all places.

Using hot water and dish soap in the bathroom and kitchen, including sinks and drains, will help eliminate bacteria from the pipes and prevent eggs and feces from possible unwanted insects from accumulating there.
There is nothing more unpleasant than thinking about bacteria and insects in the kitchen sink.
