I was surprised when the plumber lit a match and threw it into my toilet. But the method worked, and now I'm using it too.

 

It's rare to find a box of matches in today's city apartments, but I secured one when I encountered an unpleasant surprise in my toilet. As a rule, I prefer to leave repairs to professionals, but this time something completely different was needed.

After noticing a terrible smell coming from the toilet bowl, I tried everything: cleaners, deodorizers, more intensive flushing. Nothing helped. Finally, I called a plumber.

An elderly master came, serious and silent. He listened carefully to my problem and took a box of matches out of his pocket. He lit a match and dropped it into the toilet. My amazement was boundless.

The plumber explained that a burning match is an effective remedy against unpleasant odors in the toilet. The secret lies in the properties of sulfur, which is contained at the tip of each match. It effectively neutralizes various odors, including those from the toilet. To use this method, it is enough to light the match and drop it into the toilet bowl. The sulfur begins to evaporate, eliminating unpleasant odors and leaving the bathroom fresh and clean.

Now I can deal with odors without harmful chemicals, thanks to a simple lit match. However, remember the safety precautions when working with fire and make sure there are no flammable cleaning products in the toilet.
