The video showed the TikTokker following a customer around the store and he said, “Oh God, don’t do it! Don’t do it.”

The customer went to a self-checkout lane and the man told viewers, “So, as you saw, he’s spending $24 on a gallon of the Main Line Opener made by Green Gobbler.”

He continued, “So, here’s the problem. What most homeowners don’t know about these main line openers or main line cleaners is that they’re only going to attack paper and baby wipes. But underlying causes of mainline sewers is typically roots and harsh clogs.”

The man said that this kind of cleaning product will never fix major clogs and, if they do work, it will only be temporarily.

The TikTokker said that people should hire a plumber to fix these kinds of issues in their homes.
