My kid stuffed loads of tissue in the toilet. This technique worked 100%.
First used boiling water with shampoo and detergent but that was taking a bit long... so boiled more water...added liquid dishwasher, shampoo, detergent and fabric conditioner and poured it and it just flowed instantly! Thanks.
Note: I'm getting more info from https://mycloggedtoilet.com website.
Baking soda Dawn and vinegar work great too. Use in this order Dawn squirt in about 1/4 cup, throw in some baking soda 1/4 cup, and pour in 1cup of white vinegar let set a few minutes I usually wait 5-10 (the baking Soda and vinegar take away the smell) then flush. This has worked almost every time I have tried it with only one exception. When your done your toilet is clean too.
Have you ever looked up at your shower head and noticed a bunch of the nozzles aren't working? I (Steph) installed a new shower head in 2013 when I moved into my house, and haven't thought about it since. Over time I have noticed the water seemed to be coming out harder and was spraying in different directions. It also didn't have the 'rain' effect it once did. I decided it was time to try to clean it! Here's what I did.

If you are looking to add character to a room or space in your home, think about stenciling an accent wall. Stencils are very inexpensive, easily customizable as far as colors and sometimes sizes, and they turn out absolutely gorgeous. If you are willing to put the time in, you can create a gorgeous focal wall in your home using a stencil.
I love Halloween! Not the scary haunted houses or movies, because I'm a big chicken with a huge imagination- which is not a good combo. But the dressing up, fun parties, decorations and of course the candy!! And since we don't want to scare the children around here ;) I stick to more fun decorations at our house for Halloween. So this year I made these cute and easy mummy mason jar guys to decorate our foyer table with. They are adorable, and so easy to make it's scary!!
Not exciting, but a quick way to save a $20 Bill.. Works for me..

Winter time is the time where you're slathering on lotion and washing your hands more frequently to prevent the flu, but one thing I notice that starts to happen is that my rings start getting gunked up with soap scum and excess lotion build up. Rather than stop by my jeweler every other week, I created my own DIY Jewelry Cleaner to help do the job...with one unexpected twist at the end using my FAVORITE tool to completely sanitize my ring and make it 99% germ free!

Have a question about this project?
I use loose yeast just like for baking bread. It feeds the bacteria that keeps your septic system working properly. You still have to pump it every 2 years but once a month put a 1/2 cup loose yeast in your toilet and flush
Exactly how does the yeast keep the septic tank clean, does it cause the contents of the tank to evaporate? I'd like to know it regulate loose yeast would work if there is no cubed or tablet form yeast.

The yeast eats the stuff in your septic tank. All I have ever used is the loose type.
