[quote=Anonymous]The most common source of bad smells in a house is sewer gas. Sometimes there is a leak but it requires the right combination of conditions for it to come in the house. One way to check is to pour peppermint oil down your drains and see if you can smell it afterwards. Sending it down with very hot water helps to make it spread more aggressively. It's best if you have two people, one to pour the oil down the drain and one who waits outside until it's all poured and then goes around sniffing for it. Your nose will be more sensitive if you haven't already been exposed to it. If you detect a leak, fixing it is a routine job for a plumber. You should fix it, sewer gas can be dangerous. [/quote]
