rymenhildI just removed an eldritch horror from the bathroom sink, using only a pine branch, a chopstick, and two rubber gloves.
I'd tried Drāno first, but three applications of nasty poisonous chemicals failed to remove the intruder, so (at my roommate's suggestion) I delved into the deep with pointy sticks. (Thank God for the rubber gloves, because I did not want to touch those pointy sticks after long!) The pine branch (chosen because I could throw it away once I was done) proved rather too bendy to serve the purpose, so roommate sacrificed a chopstick to the cause.
It took about ten minutes of prodding for a two-inch black blob to emerge, eyeless and bleak, from the depths. Together my roommate and I escorted the creature to the trashcan, and now it is gone and will never trouble us again... I hope.
So, how's your pre-Thanksgiving cleaning going?
