Ice to Clean Disposal

One of the best ways that I know of is to turn the water on at a trickle and turn your disposal on while empty. Then push about two quarts of ice cubes down into the disposal. That's ice, not fingers! This cleans the blades. With clean blades, there will be no smell. The ice actually cleans the whole mechanism. You can use lemon down the disposal to help with odors, but this is totally optional.

If the disposal is really dirty, the crushed ice may back up into the sink. Don't worry, let it run and it will all go down. When the disposal runs empty, you are done. I cleaned apartments for many years, and you learn to work smart not harder than you need to.
