ما يعمل شيء

I own a house built in the early 1950s. After owning this house for a couple years I started smelling the dreams which is a horrible smell if you don't know. Unfortunately, just as the pandemic started and we entered lockdown, my sewer pipe disconnected and sank into my yard, causing a lot of black water to overwhelm the lower level of my house. Of course there was no way this was going to take care of that but my plumbers were fabulous and everything got taken care of. Ever since then I've been using these to keep all my drains fresh. They do a great job with minimal work on my part. I've subscribed to them so that about every 3 months or so I get more just as I have used up the ones I had in all of my sinks or drains. It's a nice peace of mind and keeps the drains running freely.

Update: After about two months of using this, I’m not sold on its overall effectiveness. I used it in several places. In my bar, which develops film and odors - it did great. The drain rarely clogs but it gets constant drip from the ice well and this really helped keep it odor free and running smoothly. In my kitchen sink, which never has clogged, I’ve still been using this here just preemptively so the jury is out on the verdict how effective it is there. The bathroom sink hasn’t clogged completely but these haven’t really done much other than keeping it moving, albeit slowly. The shower drain hasn’t really been affected positively or negatively. It’s just as slow as ever. I know both of these drains see a fair amount of hair and soap, which this should be breaking down. I guess they haven’t stopped entirely, however they haven’t kept things flowing as smoothly as I had hoped/expected. I normally hit them with some draino once a month but I haven’t as I was willing to be patient and let these do their magic. I wanted a more eco/pipe friendly solution but… It just doesn’t seem to be doing what I need it to do in these instances. I don’t trust most chemical drain cleaners because I rent and I don’t want to have to potentially foot a bill on repair (though that’s never happened, but hypothetically it’s possible). A lot of hair goes down my bathroom drains and they tend to run very slowly. Popped one in the sink and on day one it’s already moving better. Put one in the shower and haven’t seen any improvement yet but I imagine it will. The sticks are scent less so they don’t smell up the place when I’m using the sinks, and they seem they’re going to do what I need them to do. They’re definitely cheaper than getting corrosive chemicals I’ve been buying about once a month, and I love the set it and forget it philosophy. I’ll update in a month and we’ll see where we’re at.

I have been using these for years. They are amazing and work exactly as they say. They actually arrived exactly when they said they would. Amazing.

As part of my drain cleaning and maintenance routine, I've used the Green Gobbler Drain Cleaner & Deodorizer FRESH SCENT Sticks for several years. I drop them into my drains every few months - sometimes more often for heavily used drains. I find that they do deodorize as well as breaking down basic soap residue and hair that find its way into the drains. They also seem to have eliminated any black drain flies from our home. I think the bad reviews are coming from unrealistic expectations of the product and/or improper use of the product.
