Using a Plunger

A plunger is an inexpensive and effective tool that can help unclog a blocked toilet. Here's how to use it:

1. Wear gloves and protective glasses
2. Make sure there's enough water in the toilet bowl to cover the end of the plunger
3. Place the plunger vertically over the toilet hole and carefully plunge up and down several times
4. Check if the blockage has cleared
5. If it hasn't, repeat the process clockwise and counterclockwise motions

Using a Drain Snake

If your plunger can't unblock the toilet, you could try using a drain snake. Here's how:

1. Insert the drain snake into the toilet hole and push it through until you feel resistance
2. Turn the handle to break up the blockage
3. Pull out the snake and flush the toilet to check if the blockage has cleared

Using a Chemical Unblocker

A chemical unblocker is an option, but should be used with caution. Here's how to use it:

1. Wear gloves and protective glasses
2. Follow the instructions on the package
3. Let it sit for at least 30 minutes
4. Flush the toilet several times
