I have a horrible smell coming from underneath my kitchen sink so I took it apart thinking I would find a dead animal and what I found was nothing so I went to look underneath the house and there was that smell and still no dead animal the smell is getting worse everyday and I noticed that underneath my kitchen sink the pipes had been sweating what can I do to stop it the cabinets and everything are dry so I don't know what the smell is

Drain and supply lines can sweat but usually not. If you have any sweating it would only be on the cold line and only if you drew quite a bit of water. Is this your case? Could be pipes are leaking. Dry off with towels and then put one wrap of toilet paper around each pipe to find where the leak starts
