Ugh. There's been a horrendous stench in the bathroom all day and I can't for the life of me figure out where it's coming from or how to fix it
spoilered cause probably a bit gross
It smells kind of like a combination of mold, rotting meat, and rotten eggs. It's awful. Probably sewer gas I'm guessing. My bathroom and toilet are 2 separate rooms that share a wall, but I don't believe share a wastewater line
I can smell it in both, but it's extremely strong in the bathroom, and only faint in the toilet room if the fan isn't running. Can't smell it while it is. It's almost strong enough to knockout a bloody horse in the bathroom. I was thinking dry P trap, because I haven't used the bathtub while I've been here, and this place I believe was vacant for a little while. I've tried running the taps and tipping a fair bit of water down the drains, enought o hopefully dislodge anything that could be causing the smell if it isn't sewer gas, but no dice
There's no clothes on the floor in the bathroom or anything, and both at least appear visibly clean. I've tried sniffing each drain but they don't really smell bad, they just smell like water with a little bit of "grandma's house"/old people smell
I think I'm gonna have to admit I dunno and call the landlord to get a plumber out. I'm just scared maybe I've unintentionally fucked something up, or it's a dead easy fix and I get stung with the cost
