With citric acid
Trying this bottle method is really a no-brainer, as all you need is 1 liter of demineralized water and 150g of citric acid , a citrus-derived ingredient with powerful anti-limescale properties .

So all you have to do is pour the water into an old recycling bottle and then add the citric acid , preferably with a funnel so that it doesn’t fall down . Then close the bottle with the lid and shake everything vigorously to help the citric acid dissolve.

And here the compound is ready to rid your shower drains of that terrible sewage smell! At this point all you have to do is pour this mixture down the shower drain, let it sit for a few minutes and then pour a bucket of very hot water over it. You will notice that not only does the water flow better through the drain, but there are no longer any traces of odor!

With vinegar and lemon
As an alternative to citric acid, you can also combine two other ingredients that are also known for their limescale-inhibiting, cleaning and degreasing properties. What are we talking about? Some vinegar and lemon! In addition, lemon also helps to perfume the entire bathroom thanks to its intoxicating smell!
