Bathroom Sink Has Mold or Mildew In Overflow Drain Hole
I noticed a bad odor coming from *inside* the bathroom sink. I looked
inside the overflow drain hole with a flashlight and sure enough, there's mold (or mildew?) growing in there! Would some dilution of Clorox + water work? And how can I get the Clorox down into that narrow hole? Any type of brush that is narrow & flexible enough to get down into that hole? Thanx in advance! -- Steven D.

Chlorix is good, but that "hole" is a concealed passage which goes all the way to the drain (pop-up) opening. Very hard to clean of the soap scum which the mildew lives on. A turkey baster might work for this. Jim |
