HOW TO UNCLOG A TOILET WITH FECES

CLOGGED TOILET BASIN WITH FECES. Sometimes there comes a time when your toilet bowl becomes clogged. And not only is it clogged, but it also has feces in it. And while it’s no fun to unclog a toilet bowl with feces, what can you do to deal with it? Here, we’ll cover easy and quick ways to get out of this unpleasant situation.

10 WAYS TO UNCLOG AND CLEAN A BASIN FROM FECES

One of the quickest ways to unclog a toilet is to simply use a drainsnake or a plunger. Both of these tools can unclog your toilet drain in a matter of minutes. Not only they can break up the clog, but they can also push it out so that water can flow freely. There are also several chemical agents and several everyday household products that you can use to help break up or dissolve clogs in your toilet bowl.

BASIN CLEANING WITH PLUNGER

BASIN UCLOGGING WITH PLUNGER - CLOGGED TOILET BASIN WITH FECES

If you’re looking for a quick way to unclog a toilet, a plunger is the perfect tool to start with. Every home should have a plunger. Start by lifting the toilet lid to prevent any spills, then insert the plunger into the toilet bowl and completely cover the drain with the rubber tip. Then, push the plunger into the bowl before gently releasing it to create suction. You need to be extra careful during this step so that no drops of contaminated water fall on you. It’s a good idea to stand further back from the plunger to prevent this from happening. Also, make sure to wear rubber gloves before touching the plunger to avoid getting your hands dirty during the process. If the water doesn’t start flowing after you press the plunger the first time, repeat the pressing motion a few times, as many times as needed. If it doesn’t clear the clog after about 4 to 10 tries, you may need to move on to another method.

TOILET BASIN UNCLOGGING WITH TOILET BRUSH

In addition to the plunger, you should also have a toilet brush (pigal) next to your toilet bowl. A toilet brush can be a handy tool for breaking up solid waste and cleaning the toilet drain. It will also help you clean the toilet bowl of any stains that remain after you flush the toilet. To use your toilet brush, start by putting on a pair of rubber gloves and then place the brush inside the toilet. Then, press the brush part of the toilet brush down to gently break up the blockage. This is certainly an unpleasant task, but it is necessary so that you do not have an ugly and dirty picture in front of you. After you break the blockage, take a plunger (suction cup) and make a few attempts to suck it up. If the water flows freely, you can flush the toilet bowl with hot water.

BASIN UNCLOGGING WITH DRAINSNAKE

A steel drainsnake, or plumber’s snake, can be used to fix a clogged toilet. The snake-like mechanism is inserted into the drain and, by rotating it, you can break the blockage and allow the water to flow freely. You can get it from most hardware stores or online. It is quite affordable and easy to use. To use the plunger, push the metal end of the plunger as far as it will go into the toilet drain and when you feel resistance, pull it out slightly. Repeat this process by pushing in and out a few times to break the clog and loosen the waste. Then, pull the plunger out and rinse the toilet bowl thoroughly and clean the drainsnake of bacteria.

BASIN UCLOGGING WITH CLOTHES HANGER

If you don’t have any of the tools mentioned above, you can simply use a wire clothes hanger. For this method, take a wire hanger and use pliers to unroll it so that it is straight at the bottom and create a hook at the top. Then, place the bottom of the hanger in the toilet bowl and rotate it back and forth a few times. Make sure to put on a pair of rubber gloves beforehand to avoid getting your hands dirty during this process. The hanger will help loosen the stool and eventually break up the blockage that was created, which will dissolve and you can flush it out. You need to be careful with this method, as the wire hanger can easily scratch the inside of your toilet bowl.

UNCLOGGING THE BASIN WITH WATER AND DISH SOAP

Looking for a less practical approach? Well, here is a simple solution you can use. Hot water and dish soap. A mixture of hot water and liquid dish soap can work wonders to break up blockages. This solution may take longer than the others, but it is just as effective. For this method, boil 6 cups of water in a pot. Once it is boiling, add 2 tablespoons of liquid dish soap. Then slowly and carefully pour the mixture from the pot into the toilet bowl. After pouring the hot water into the toilet, let it sit for about 5 to 7 minutes to soften the stool. You should see the waste begin to thin out and dissolve after a few minutes. Once it has thinned significantly, you can flush the toilet bowl. If your toilet drain is unclogged, the water will flow normally. But if it doesn’t, make sure to have your plunger handy to prevent overflowing onto your floor. Keep in mind that you can only use this method once, as adding too much water can cause the toilet to overflow while it’s clogged.

BAKING SODA AND PLASTIC FOOD COVER

Another method that you may not be aware of is using plastic wrap and baking soda. Baking soda is actually one of those basic household products that can be used for a variety of purposes and is extremely effective at dissolving the stool that is causing a clog in your toilet bowl. For this method, you will need a few cups of warm water. Lift the toilet bowl lid and then pour about 3 to 6 cups of water into the bowl. Then, immediately add a cup of baking soda. You can also have the warm water and baking soda mixture prepared before pouring it into the toilet bowl. After doing this, cover the bowl with plastic wrap. This will help the baking soda work more effectively. Let the baking soda sit in the bowl for 15 minutes to an hour, if necessary. Try to check it frequently to see if the waste has dissolved. Once they are completely dissolved, take the plunger (suction cup), give it a good push or two, and then rinse the basin. Keep your plunger nearby for any additional assistance.

Coca-Cola AND PLASTIC FOOD COVERING

Coca-Cola, in addition to being a soft drink, is excellent for unclogging a toilet bowl. The phosphoric acid in this soft drink is what makes it a particularly effective clog remover. If you have extra cans or bottles of Coca-Cola at home, they will be useful for this method of clogging . Start by lifting the toilet bowl lid and then pour 2 to 5 cups of Coca-Cola into the toilet bowl. Then, cover the bowl lid with plastic wrap to speed up the chemical process of the soft drink. Leave the Coca-Cola in the bowl for 10 minutes to an hour. Take a look inside the bowl. You will notice that the waste has completely dissolved. Flush your bowl to see if it has gotten rid of the clog. And of course, keep an eye on the water overflow.

CLEANING THE BASIN FROM FECES WITH CHLORINE

Sometimes toilet clogs can also be removed using household bleach. If you are still having trouble getting rid of the clog, try pouring two cups of bleach into the toilet bowl. Before using this method, it is a good idea to open the bathroom window or door to ventilate the room as the smell can be very strong. Let the bleach sit in the toilet bowl for about 10 to 15 minutes so that it has time to break down the clog, and then you can flush the bowl.

HOT WATER AND SHAMPOO

You may have never thought of using shampoo as a solution to get rid of a clogged toilet. But the ingredients found in most shampoos work wonders to dissolve waste, just as they work to clean grease and dirt from your hair. Any everyday shampoo can be used for this method. To start, pour 3 cups of warm water into the toilet bowl. You can use warm water straight from the tap. Immediately after, pour about 1 teaspoon of shampoo into the toilet bowl and let it sit for about 15 to 30 minutes. Check the clog every 10 minutes or so to see if it has moved down the drain. Once it has loosened, flush the toilet to get rid of any remaining residue. If this method doesn’t work, you may need to use a stronger chemical or another method.

CHEMICAL DRAIN CLEANERS

If you haven’t gotten rid of your clog, there are several different commercial unblocking options available, either from your local supermarket or from specialty home unblocking stores. These drain cleaning agents contain reactive chemicals that cause the clog to break down. If you prefer an all-natural approach, you can also use an enzyme-based drain cleaner, which is less harsh but just as effective. Enzyme cleaners contain biodegradable enzymes that help break down the clog so that it liquefies. If the clog is severe, these may be the best solution before calling in a professional drain cleaning technician.

TIPS TO PREVENT THE BASIN FROM CLOGGING

CLOGGED TOILET BASIN WITH FECES

The size and amount of solid waste in the toilet can definitely cause a clogged toilet. But, sometimes, toilet clogs are caused by poor toileting habits.

Here are some ways to avoid pelvic floor blockages in the future:

  • Do not throw toilet paper down the toilet, as over time it can cause blockages in the drain.
  • Never throw personal hygiene products, medications, wet wipes or other non-biodegradable items into the toilet.
  • Have a trash can next to the sink so you can throw even the smallest piece of trash in it. 
  • Always flush the toilet bowl after each use.

Most clogs can be avoided if you are careful about what you flush down your toilet.

Conclusion

Unfortunately, clogged toilets are something that can happen occasionally. However, knowing these methods to unclog them, such as using steel wool (plumbing snakes), plungers, chemicals, and baking soda, can save you time when it comes to fixing the problem. So, if you find that your toilet is clogged while it still has stool in it, consider using one of the methods mentioned above to help clear the blockage quickly and effectively.

Do baby wipes and wet wipes clog the toilet?

Yes. Nothing other than our natural sewage should be disposed of in the basin. No other object, even water-soluble, is intended for draining the basin

Why doesn’t my toilet flush when I flush it even though it’s not clogged?

If the toilet is not flushing properly, it may be due to one of the following problems:
