    Fishy smell coming from room in basement
    We moved into a home where the carpet had to be replaced because of urine. There was a fishy smell coming from the basement... still. I had the air ducts cleaned out and we still smell it coming from one room. It's not all the time either, just sometimes, but its bad. What could it be and how do I get rid of it?

    Al in Florida recently gave me a great deal of info regarding getting rid of home odrs by shock treatments with a ozone generator. Contact Albinfla from the members list or Google ozone shock treatments. This is not the home air filter that you run 24/7. It shocks and kills all orgaisms in the home including all bacteria, spider, forgotten pets, etc... Pets and you must leave the home for 2 hours after the treatment ends.
