    Smell under house
    There is a smell coming into different parts of our first floor. How can I check to see if it is a dead animal or plumbing?

    You could pour something distinct down the drains like bleach or citrus. Then, if you have a way of blowing a fan under the house, see if the smell comes out that you poured down the drain.
