How to Clean Your Garbage Disposal

Think your garbage disposal is fairly clean after you run it?  Think again...

An appliance handyman showed me this trick awhile back and it amazes me every time how much gunk comes up.

Eww gross!

How to Clean Your Garbage Disposal:

1.  Fill the disposal opening and sink with ice.

2.  Turn on the disposal.

3.  Add a little water.

4.  Use the handle end of a screwdriver (not your fingers unless you're a professional!) to push the ice down into the disposal until the ice and water create a swirly slushy.

5.  Let it run until all the slushy ice water goes down the disposal drain.

It will be squeaky clean after this trick.  Try it for yourself!
