We have a sewage lagoon on our property and only one of our bathrooms is having a problem with the horrible smell. Can we use the bleach and boiling water technique? I didn't know if a lagoon will be any different than a tank and I don't want to mess up any of the natural bacteria that eats the "yucky" stuff.

Thanks,
Lisa

Here's a link I want you to read, I'm not familiar with sewer lagoons but they sure sound like open cesspools to me. Did you read where 70%b of them aren't working properly? And your thoughts?
Hat's the source of the smell in your bathroom? The toilet? Any of the drains? Any bubbling w3hen you flush or drain? Let me know, Tom
