A clogged toilet is never pleasant, but this simple hack can make it easier to handle.
All you need is liquid dish soap. Pour about half a cup into the toilet bowl and let
it sit for 25 to 30 minutes. Then, pour hot water from a bucket into the bowl
(without overflowing it). The soap and hot water will help lubricate the clog,
making it easier to clear. If it doesn’t work the first time, try again.
