My 4 yr old son flushed a rubber aligator and snake in the toilet and now the toilet does't
Flush very well. How can I fix this without calling a plumber?

Well, since we can't call the Crocodile Hunter any more, the next logical step would be to snake it out. I had to take my toilet off and fish out the wash rag my son flushed once. That requires getting a new bees wax toilet ring.

Try using your hand and see if you can pull anything out. But like mag said it's noy hard to take it up and look.

You really want one of these;

Draper Drain Cleaner 4.7M - DIY and Tools from DIYTools.co.uk - Your First Stop For All Things DIY !

To either push the objects through or pull them back!

Your local DIY store should sell them, they're not expensive!

If yuck, your hand won't fit, I would try a coat hanger wire. Pulling the toilet can be a bother. They are heavy, fragile, and unwieldy. A new set of closet bolts would be a good idea in addition to a wax ring.

You don't need one of these,( see image) they're fine for clearing drains but what you need to get is a closet auger, (see image)to get down past the bend and auger into the toys and pull them back. If that fails then the toilet will have to be pulled and t6he toys fished out from the bottom. Good luck. Tom
