Hi folks,
My kitchen has had an odor for the last 2 weeks that won't go away. Smells like rotten garbage. I tried deodorizing the disposal and that didn't work. Best I can tell, the smell is coming from under the sink. The smell permeates out about 10 feet.
I don't see any evidence of a water leak, so it's not mold. Best I can figure it's garbage trapped somewhere. But where? And how do I get rid of it? I'm not averse to hiring a plumber to come out, but I first need to know what I'm possibly dealing with. For reference, the house is only 8 years old, and the pipes are PVC.
While I'm thinking of it, my daughter's bathroom sink was clogged with hair and stopped up so much it barely drained. I got some Drano gel last night and unclogged it, flushing it with hot water. All is well there, but is there any possible relation between the two?
TIA, Rick
