Simple Kitchen Hack Keeps Garbage Disposals Fresh and Clog-Free Keeping your kitchen appliances clean and functioning smoothly is a top priority for most homeowners. A common problem, however, is the garbage disposal. Food particles and grease can build up, leading to unpleasant odors and clogs. But a simple solution exists, as demonstrated in a recent video by Aspen Square Management. A maintenance worker showcased a quick and easy method to keep your garbage disposal fresh and clog-free. "One thing I like to do is clean out my garbage disposal," the worker explains in the video, "Grab a couple of cubes of ice and run some hot water." He then adds a squirt of dish soap before running the disposal. The video clearly shows the process, making it easy to replicate at home. This simple hack not only cleans the disposal but also sharpens its blades, according to the worker. He also notes that it helps prevent fruit flies, a common kitchen pest. The video's straightforward approach and effective demonstration make it a valuable resource for homeowners looking for simple ways to maintain their kitchen appliances.
