13. I agree with the advice to not put grease down your drains.

I buy milk and juice in cartons instead of plastic. When they are empty, I pull open the tops and rinse them out so they don't stink. When I cook anything that results in fats or grease being left in the pan, I pour as much of the grease from the pan into the carton. Then, I take reused paper towels and wipe out the rest of the grease and put the towel in the carton. This gets thrown out with the trash. Our Water Bureau reminds people every year as we approach the winter holidays to avoid pouring the leftovers grease down the drain. That grease clogs drains and can clog up the main sewer system, which costs lots of money to fix. I do find that Dawn dish washing liquid is helpful for clearing up stubborn clogs. Let the backed up water drain down, if you can. Then pour straight Dawn into the drain. Pour very hot or boiling water into the drain ( but avoid contact with cold porcelain if using boiling water). Let sit for 20-30 minutes. If it still is clogged, try working with a plunger or snake. Usually, that will take care of it. Sometimes, the Dawn and hot water treatment has to be repeated. Good luck! Plumbing problems are miserable.
