I recently had my drain pipe replaced under the raised foundation of my house. It had probably been leaking for a month or so. I first noticed the strong musty smell like rotting potato peels early on but I assumed after the pipe was repaired the smell would just go away. It has been a week and I can still smell that musty odor throughout my house. How can I get rid of the smell ? Is there a product that I can put in the dirt under my house?

You may try spreading lime on the moiisture. You can also cover the affected area with plastic but your best bet, after things dry out, would be to enclose the Crawlspace. Good luck, Tom
