TikTokers are back at it with useful home hacks, and the latest is a two-ingredient solution to unclog a shower drain. Yes, instead of running out to buy Draino or suffering through a shower with a pool of dirty water covering your feet, a clear drain is only a cup of baking soda and vinegar away. The answer has been in your cupboard all along!

TikToker @amandawilkins1 posted a video of this super-easy hack. In the video, she said she read online that if you put a cup of baking soda and a cup of vinegar in your drain, it should dissolve any hair that’s clogged in it. She decided to put the hack to the test around midnight, because she noticed her shower drain was really clogged. And it worked! Apart from the bad smell that she said the combination produced, the hack was a success. If you want a cheaper solution to store-bought unclogging solutions, this is it!

Although TikTok is known for its viral dances, it’s also full of extremely helpful home hacks like this one. One TikToker came up with a Play-Doh hack that’ll change the way you install cabinet handles forever, and another user has a stellar jean folding trick. Property Brother Drew Scott is even on there sharing hacks like how to remove a stripped screw. It’s a home hack gold mine, people! We love a good multifaceted social media platform.
