I mentioned before that my roommate was largely responsible for clogging up our shower drain. At first I considered the possibility that he was clogging it up with his body hair or something, and I didn't worry too much about it - I just bought Drano and unclogged it from time to time.
One Sunday, though, he turns to me and says "oh by the way, the drain was clogged again this weekend. There was even black oily stuff coming up." Puzzled an a little bit worried, I allow him to continue. He concludes, "I guess I shouldn't be scrubbing my boots in the bathtub anymore."
5. Cleaning boots in the bathtub, clogging the drain. Repeatedly.
I can understand clogging the bathtub exactly once with dirty runoff from cleaning boots. After the drain fails to clear, that's usually a sign to not do anything that may clog it up again. And then I realized that every time I was going outside to rinse mud off of boots, he was scrubbing chunks of mud off in the bathtub, DESPITE the fact that he knew our bathtub wasn't draining properly.
Sometimes I wonder what's going on in his mind.

Reading all this beats studying for my test tomorrow!
I hope you're doing well, despite your roommate bad ideas!

When I read this, I immediately pictured a Rico Suave type with springy chest hair overflowing out of an open shirt collar and an obligatory gold medallion. It takes quite a bit of body hair to clog a drain unless you have long hair.
At least he doesn't leave mud streaks in the tub?
gross if he left mud streaks...you would wonder if those streaks were from his boots or the kind you get in your underwear
You have to get your hands on a boot scraper. This is a light weight easy to use tool that scrapes the mud off before you get inside or in the car. www.boot-scraper.co.uk Once the majority of the mud is off then get a tub of warm water, a scrubbing brush and clean off what little mud is left. Finally wipe with a cloth and put them somewhere to dry. Done.
