Should we simply throw the lemons down the sink? Is that enough to stop the unpleasant aroma? Of course not, it’s not enough: you have to prepare the lemon properly to exploit its properties.
We take the lemon and cut a nice slice, taking care not to make it too thick. Once this is done, we can use the freshly cut slice to solve the drainage problem.
It will disinfect the sink drain: no more unpleasant odours
To maximize the lemon’s effectiveness, we remove the classic grid that protects the sink drain and place the slice in correspondence with the drain itself. Why is this decision so important?
The citric acid that lemons tend to release over time ensures that the drain is cleaned and no longer gives off that bad smell that has certainly spread throughout the kitchen and, who knows, maybe even the rest of the house.
Lemon always manages to keep the exhaust very fresh, so we’ll no longer have to deal with that stench that was causing us serious problems. Once we’ve positioned the slice, we can once again fit the protective grille.
The only thing to remember is to change the lemon slice every two or three days. If we don’t, the lemon slice will go mouldy and we won’t have solved the problem at all.
