Dear God in Heaven the SMELL part 2
« on: March 07, 2011, 04:57:25 PM »
part 2 because this seems to happen at least twice a year here...

My house smells like an 800 pound man's farts after eating chili, cabbage, and Mexican food!  I can't find the smell, AGAIN!  I threw all of the potatoes out, all of the garbage in the house, cleaned the fridge....  It still smells!  My dog likes to take things out of the garbage and hide it for later.  I find things all over the house that she has hidden.  I have no idea where or what the smell is.  It is just horrible.  The cable guy came here today and I am surprised he didn't puke.  I wish I could bottle the smell and send it out over the internets so you could help me identify the source.  It may be time to just burn it down and start over.

Was your house built on top a sacred Indian burial ground?  Or maybe a landfill.

I'd get that checked out.

Do you by any chance have a tub/shower/sink that you never use? It may be as simple as making sure you have water in all the
S-traps to stop sewer gases from getting in the house.

If I even thought I had rats I would burn this place, I HATE rats.  I will try the water thing.  There may very well be dead people under the house.  No ghosts though.

mamacags inspired me to clean out my refrigerator.  I threw out a couple of old bagels, some very rank tofu I got from that lousy Korean place, and half a can of meat sauce that had been in there so long it was classified by Greenpeace as an endangered species.

Thank you, mamacags!

That's not unusual; last I heard, Greenpeace classified barnacles, garden slugs and athlete's foot fungus as endangered species.

I once hid a jar of shit with no lid on it behind a guys seat in his pickup ... in the summer.  Took quite a while before it was found.

Well, there is a potential problem if the ol' butthole ain't been properly scrubbed in awhile.

I hate to ask, but since Gina is sorta on the subject anyway -- does some of that stuff smell like tuna fish?

another good place, Eupher!!!  Mama, do this for me......rub your finger between one of your stomach rolls and then ask your hubby what it smells most like.  He might have to taste it to get the true essense.

Have you had new carpet installed or perhaps new drapes??

When you buy new sheets the package tells you to wash them before use, new bed spreads or new furniture.??

You say twice a year, could the smell be coming from the ground outside??  A small gas leak with the rotten egg smell could be your problem or even a pin hole in the septic system can by climate build up inside when the windows and doors are kept closed for months.

Heating systems and the air vents that get gross when not cleaned every couple of years, mold and mildew in air conditioners can also give off a putrid smell

.MAMA, smell is a survival method for people and animals to tell us what is good and what is bad. The smell of liver being cooked will gag me and I do not know why.

Couple times a year something is going on due to humidity, temperature and most likely is not a dead rodent in the walls.  Something is activating the smell or you would have it year round.

Not to scare you ----News last month told of people in an apartment complex kept complaining of bad smells to the owner and the public works.   Both did an investigation and could not find the reason for the smell.   When TSHTF and half a block was blown sky high due to a pinhole leak in the natural gas pipes.

Please investigate and ask questions of neighbors this is not normal, and have your water tested, as a precaution.

Any floor drains in the basement?  In our old house, the floor drain tended to be the source of really bad sewer smells.  It also had, for some bizarre reason, a small well below where the water drained out.  This well would, of course, fill up with water that was never drained away and would eventually start to smell pretty rank.

Dead squirrel in the wall?

Had it happen in another house...twice.  :censored:

Cut a piece of the wall out after the first one died.. caught the little baby and turned it loose outside.

When the third one got trapped...I went and bought super dooper spray from the pet store to use until the smell went away...about 2 weeks. I felt like such a murderer.... :bawl:
Just hand over the chocolate...back away slowly...far away....and you won't get hurt....

Save the Earth... it's the only planet with chocolate.

"My therapist told me the way to achieve true inner peace is to finish what I start. So far I've finished two bags of M&M's and a chocolate cake. I feel better already." – Dave Barry

A balanced diet is chocolate in both hands.
