OMG my house stinks like farts! **Updated in post 24** - Page 2

[Hey Mama!]

I had wondered if there was something dead in the walls. I'm going to call the gas company on Monday to come do a check just in case. We were gone for about 1 1/2 days and the heat was shut off. I also plugged all the drains and the smell was gone. I can't determine if it was because the heater was off or because I plugged the drains.

Sounds like it is the drains. Hope it gets sorted and that you are done moving!

and I had too agree here...

I've had our place go stinky on us a few times because of the drains. Dump about a cup of bleach down each drain and leave it a bit. If it's the drain that should take care of whatever it is.
My first thought though was have the gas company check the place. My nose can smell chemicals a mile a way it seems and I'm usually the first to smell the gas but it definitely has a rotten egg smell to it. If it didn't smell in the summer when you looked at it were the windows open at that time? Maybe it's stronger once fall came because the place isn't being aired out as much.

You wise mommas have saved our butts, literally! I called the gas company today and we do have a small gas leak in one of the burners of the heater. The gas man knew the repair guy for our place and put in a call, it should be fixed tomorrow. Luckily it's not all that cold here, so we should be ok for tonight.
