Collect it in an empty can and put it in the trash. These steps will reduce your need for a drain cleaner. Open windows to air out the house occasionally to avoid the use of chemical air fresheners. Use alternative or less toxic homemade products. One way to get a safer product is to make it yourself.
Homemade products have definite advantages, but they also have disadvantages.
Economy - Many of the ingredients are inexpensive, so you may save money over time. Storage space - Many of the ingredients are common household products you already have, and you can mix up small batches so that you don't have to store many products. Since you mix them, you decide the amount and type of chemicals in the cleaning products you use. Safety - Homemade products generally have less toxic chemicals in them. They may take longer to clean effectively.
