But for a long time, oil has been used not only in cooking, but also to solve common household problems with its help: polishing furniture, cleaning clothes from paint stains, combating unpleasant odors, protecting against insects, cleaning garden tools, etc.
Experienced housewives told about a simple secret: why pour oil into the sink
Oil is poured into the sinks in the case of long-term absence of residents in the apartment or house. The product protects against the unpleasant smell that appears when the pipes dry out.
There is a hydraulic valve in the sink, which is a water plug. It is designed to prevent the penetration of unpleasant odors.
Vegetable oil eliminates this problem. The product forms a liquid coating on the surface that prevents the water from "drying out".
Therefore, experienced housewives pour a little oil into the drain before leaving, for example, on vacation. After returning from a trip, the hosts do not encounter an unpleasant aroma.
