Soap scum is a common issue in many households, especially in areas with hard water. It's a sticky residue that builds up on the walls of your pipes and can cause clogs and blockages. Soap scum can also attract other debris, such as hair and grease, making the problem worse.

To clean soap scum from your drains, you'll need a few simple ingredients:

• Baking soda
• White vinegar
• Hot water
• A drain cleaner or plumber's snake (optional)

1. Pour 1 cup of baking soda down the drain.
2. Follow with 1 cup of white vinegar.
3. Let the mixture sit for a few hours or overnight.
4. Pour hot water down the drain to rinse.

1. Purchase a drain cleaner or plumber's snake.
2. Follow the instructions on the packaging.
3. Insert the snake into the drain and rotate it to break up any clogs.
4. Rinse the drain with hot water.

To prevent soap scum buildup in the future, consider the following:

• Use a soap scum remover or a drain maintenance product regularly.
