Baking soda is moderately helpful for light maintenance and minor organic scum, but it is generally inadequate for clearing true, severe clogs on its own. While combining baking soda with white vinegar creates a fizzy chemical reaction that helps freshen up sluggish pipes and break down thin grease films, it lacks the aggressive chemical strength needed to dissolve massive hairballs. Verification: Use mechanical snakes or plungers for stubborn blockages rather than relying solely on baking soda.
