If your kitchen sink drain has a bad smell, here is a simple easy very effective way to attack the problem and make your kitchen sink free of bad odors. Your kitchen sink drain over time will build up with gunk which smells like something is rotting. This smelly odor is most likely just the garbage that has built up on the inside of your sink drain pipes. You can clean your sink over and over until it sparkles on the outside, but on the inside it could be coated with black gunk that will never wash away using normal cleaning methods.
Some people say using baking soda and white vinegar will do the job and in some cases yes it may work ok, but only if the drain pipes have just a light build up of this smelly slimy gunk. We have found a better way to get rid of this smelly gunk and the odor it causes. Instead of the baking soda and vinegar combination, try using a combination of baking soda and concentrated lemon juice, which can be bought for very cheap at places such as Walmart in plastic bottles and also makes all smell lemony which is better than the vinegar smell in our opinion. When you get your supplies together and are ready to get rid of your kitchen sink odor, you should also have on hand a face cloth and a small regular toilet plunger. You may need to use the plunger to get the water moving depending on how much slimy gunk comes off the insides of your drain pipe walls.
First start by taking a box of baking soda and pour it into your kitchen sink drain, if you have a dual sink then pour one half of the baking soda into each drain. Your sink should be dry when doing this. Then slowly pour a little lemon juice onto of the baking soda on each drain, it will fizz. When the fizz dies down a little pour some more lemon juice into each drain and keep doing this until all lemon juice has washed the baking soda away and into your sink drain (use a whole box baking soda and whole bottle of lemon juice). You will hear fizzing deep down inside your drain, just leave it sit for 15 min and let it do it’s job. After waiting 15 min, flush warm to hot water into the sink to flush all away. If your sink stops and gets plugged, this is where you need the plunger to gently push the water through the pipe along with all the nasty material that was loosened up and came off the pipe walls. You may even has a bunch of gunk coming back into your sink, you will have to scoop it out as best you can.
When all is clear and your sink is flowing normal again, you then should put in your sink plug and fill the sink up with warm to hot water, then pull the plug and all will flush through, leaving your sink much cleaner and odor free. For most doing this once a month should keep all clean and nicer smelling, but if at anytime you feel the need to freshen your kitchen sink drain, just repeat the procedure as necessary to keep your kitchen sink odor under control.
