Step 5: Use a plumber's snake for stubborn blockages.
If the drain is still clogged, try a plumber's snake, also known as an auger. Slide the snake into the drain using a pulling and pushing motion. Slide it as far as you can or until you feel a blockage. Turn the handle to rotate the snake while keeping pressure on the blockage. Run hot water into the drain as you work to loosen any grease and break up the blockage.
 Work the snake down into the drain.
