There is a terrible smell coming from my drain in the sink. I think it may be from the garbage disposal, but I'm not sure. Do any of you have a good recomendation for getting rid of the bad smell coming out of the sink? Thanks so much!
Thank you all for your suggestions! I first used the bleach to get rid of anything growing down there and then followed up with ice and lemons. I'm pleased to say...No more sinky sink! =)
I use bleach and hot water. The bleach kills germs and I have a better smelling sink. I use name brands, as in Clorox, and it has never smelled like a public bathroom in here..... If you do worry about that, the Clorox teflon product is very good and has a fresh scent to it. When I smell the clorine, I know I have a clean sink.
Agreed........lemons, vinegar and ice do work well.

Cut a lime or a lemon in half and grind in disposal with just a little vinegar...
works instantly.
I don't like the bleach b/c then it smells like a public bathroom...
Run ice and lemons, peel and all, through it. I cut the lemons in half or quarters depending on the size. The ice helps clear out stuff that may have gotten stuck.
I use ice and Solumel...takes the smell right out and is also safe.
Good luck!
Pour about a cup of bleach down the drain while running the disposal. I have had to do this many times and it gets rid of the smell. I don't actually measure the bleach but I just pour until I can only smell bleach and no more smelliness.
I second Ice and Lemons, they have always done the trick for me!
