Dropped Earrings Down the Sink… Here’s Where They End Up 😳

What happens here

Position the container directly under the P-trap. Begin unscrewing the two large nuts that connect the P-trap. One nut connects the P-trap to the sink's tailpiece, and the other connects it to the drainpipe leading into the wall. These nuts should ideally be hand-tightened, but if they are too snug, use pliers to gently loosen them. Once both nuts are loose, carefully slide the P-trap downwards, allowing the trapped water and any accumulated debris to fall into the container. Observe any long strands of hair or sludge as the item might be caught on them.

Goal: Unscrew the nuts connecting the P-trap and carefully lower it to drain water and debris into the prepared container.
