I was surprised when the plumber lit a match and flushed it down my toilet. But the method proved effective

It’s rare to find a box of matches in city apartments these days, but I stocked up on them when I encountered an unpleasant surprise in my closet. Typically, I prefer to leave repairs to professionals, but this required something different.

Having noticed a terrible smell coming from the toilets, I tried everything: detergents, scented blocks, intensive cleaning. But nothing happened.  Finally, I called a plumber.

The plumber explained that a lit match is an effective remedy for toilet odors. The secret lies in the properties of the sulfur, contained at the end of each match. It effectively eliminates various odors, including toilet perfumes.

To use this method, simply light a match and flush it down the toilet. The sulfur will begin to evaporate, neutralizing unpleasant odors and leaving the bathroom fresh and clean.
