3 Natural Ways to Unclog Your Toilet Without a Plunger

2. Dish Soap and Hot Water Technique

Dish soap acts as a lubricant, helping to break up stubborn clogs.

What You’ll Need:

• 1/2 cup liquid dish soap
• Hot water

Steps:

1. Add Dish Soap: Pour 1/2 cup of dish soap into the toilet bowl.
2. Let It Sit: Give it 10-15 minutes to seep into the clog.
3. Pour Hot Water: Carefully add hot water (not boiling) to the bowl. The heat and soap will work together to break down the blockage.
4. Flush: Once the water level lowers, flush to see if the clog has been removed.

This method is especially effective for clogs caused by greasy or fatty substances.
3. Hot Water Flush

Sometimes, all you need is a hot water flush to solve the problem.
