Clogged tiolet - wire hanger?
there is an outdoor "clean out trap" somewhere in your yard, about 4" white PVC with a cap on it.
snake that part out.
can rent snakes @ a rental place - is cheaper than buying one.
also check the vents on the roof, sometimes birds will build nests in them,
sound like you need to snake out the outdoor trap.
if it is on your side you will have to pay,
if it is on the city's side they may come do it for free
if you are on septic system it may need to be pumped out, but they have clean out traps tooo
good luck, i've been there before.....

PS if you rent ask the landlord or if in apartments call them first
Reply:got to get your hand down there and pull out the blockage .... ewwwwwww !!!!!!! ha ha ha ha.
you might pong for a while though
Reply:I think a snake (not the reptile) is the best solution, you can get them at a hardware store.
Reply:a wire hanger well not help you at all,if your plunger well not free the clog,you need to rent a snake,take the clean out cap off and run the snake,you can also try a liquid drain openner,i do not see this working however,you can also buy a cheap snake at like wal mart,these however tend to be short and can only be used by hand,which is fine if you know where the clog is,if you rent a snake it well be elec and much faster and easier,good luck little lady
