I put gel beads in my kitchen drain not thinking about them clogging the drain. Is there anything I can do myself to clear them or do I need to call a plumber?

Start by taking the undersink trap assembly apart. See if you can clear from there. Why would you drop something like this down the drain?

Remove the trap and send the snake up into the wall. Put out 6 foot and snake, reinstall the trap and test. Let me know how you make out. Good luck, Tom
