   • Pour in Some Hot (But Not Boiling) Water. When you notice a nasty clog or your toilet won’t flush, your best bet is to pour in some hot water. You can turn the tap in your bathroom sink or tub to the hottest setting or heat the water up a bit on the stove, but don’t let the water get to boiling point.
   • Swish in Some Dish Soap. If you need to kick the unclogging process up a notch, fetch some dish soap from the kitchen and squeeze a generous amount, about a 1/4 cup should do, into the toilet bowl.
   • Mix in Baking Soda and Vinegar. Who knew that something you learned in elementary school science would help with unclogging a toilet? Don’t try this hack in a toilet bowl that is already filled to the brim—you’ll want to either empty out some of the water first, or wait until the water level recedes.
   • Use the Toilet Brush. This may seem a little unpleasant, but if you’re really in a bind and there’s no toilet plunger in sight, grab a toilet brush and angle the bristles down the drain.

   • Unclog a Toilet With Baking Soda and Vinegar. Grab some baking soda and vinegar. Remove most of the water in the toilet with a cup (gloves recommended), then pour a cup of baking soda into the toilet, following it with distilled white vinegar until it begins to fizz.
   • Unclog a Toilet With Hot Water. Turn your warm water on to let it get as hot as possible. While it heats up, don a pair of rubber gloves and begin removing water from the toilet by scooping it out with a plastic cup.
   • Unclog a Toilet With a 2-Liter Bottle. If the hot water alone didn't work, you may need a little more water pressure. Remove any water left in the toilet following the steps above, then fill an empty 2-liter bottle with hot water (not boiling).
   • Unclog a Toilet With a Wire Hanger. Sometimes, toilets get so tightly clogged, that it can be nearly impossible to force the debris from the drain, even if you do have a plunger.
