Majt..if you have access to a wet/dry vacuum, put the open end of the suction line over the drain opening in the bottom of the tub. Make sure the lever for the stopper (if it has one,
is in the up position.)
Take a wet rag and hold it over the overflow hole and turn on the vacuum (this may some assistance by someone to hold the wet rag in place while you do the vacuum trick.
With any luck, what ever is lodged in the trap beneath the tup will get sucked into the vac.
Lots of Luck…MOE
