Do you have any floor drains ? Any bathroom you don't use on regular bases ? Do all your sinks have traps installed ?

The bathhroom and kitchen sinks have rubber flapper type vents under the counter and I have replaced them also. Any any idea would be apreciated we are pulling out our hair on this.

Thanks again for trying to help.

Is that smell inside the house only or you can smell it outside as well ? Does it smell all the time or at certain times only ?

Thanks again,
Inside outside right side left side bottom side top side, its everywhere and all of the time. Sometimes it is worse than others when a breeze blows just right, showers make it worse.


Thanks again for trying to help!
