Pee Uuww ! what stinks in your kitchen? It might be your disposal. Smell something like sewage or maybe it is rotten food? Look at your kitchen sink. It looks clean, you run the garbage disposal and it still smells bad. What is going on? What can I do?
Most of the time these smells are caused by food and debris that collects inside the disposal’s rubber flapper. Turn the disposal off and wipe down with a towel and some household detergent. Make sure you rub down just under the lip of the rubber flapper.
After cleaning the flapper, turn on the disposal and start dumping ice into it. Dump maybe a pound or two of ice. Using the ice causes it to break up and clean any debris from the inside of the disposal.
The last step is to freshen the disposal. With the disposal running, add either lemon or lime peels. The peels can be touch and will also help clear any debris from the inside of the disposal. And you are done! Repeat every 3 months and you will never have a smelly sink again.
