If a standard plunger fails to clear a stubborn toilet clog, first check if you are using a flat cup sink plunger instead of a heavy-duty bell-shaped flange plunger with an extended rubber flap designed specifically for toilets. If your plunger is correct but failing, stop plunging and switch to a professional toilet auger (closet snake), which feeds a steel cable down the trapway to hook and break apart dense blockages. Callout type="warning" title="Hygiene Warning": Wear rubber gloves and protective eyewear during unclogging. Verification: Retract the auger and test a bucket flush to confirm smooth drainage.
