Melbourne

I can smell it in both, but it's extremely strong in the bathroom, and only faint in the toilet room if the fan isn't running. Can't smell it while it is. It's almost strong enough to knockout a bloody horse in the bathroom. I was thinking dry P trap, because I haven't used the bathtub while I've been here, and this place I believe was vacant for a little while. I've tried running the taps and tipping a fair bit of water down the drains, enought o hopefully dislodge anything that could be causing the smell if it isn't sewer gas, but no dice

There's no clothes on the floor in the bathroom or anything, and both at least appear visibly clean. I've tried sniffing each drain but they don't really smell bad, they just smell like water with a little bit of "grandma's house"/old people smell

I think I'm gonna have to admit I dunno and call the landlord to get a plumber out. I'm just scared maybe I've unintentionally fucked something up, or it's a dead easy fix and I get stung with the cost

I feel like I'm trying to cordon off a bloody disease in Disneyland at this point

🙃

Tbh the idea of showering in the dead animal room isn't actually what's getting me, I'm mostly worried about the smell transferring (even a little bit) to me or my clothes. I'm very very self conscious about smells and the idea of having to walk around smelling like the grim reaper honestly makes me wonder if a sponge bath in the kitchen sink would leave me better off

Now that I think about it, I've noticed a lot more flies around the place as well. I was actually gonna complain about that earlier, but I just assumed a few got in when I've had to leave the door open a few times recently to bring stuff in, etc and it was my own fault

One things sure, I don't really feel like making, or eating, dinner anymore. Oh well. At least the smell is contained to the bathroom, at least for now. There's no vents or ducts in any other rooms. Although the laundry has a manhole, and the laundry door doesn't stay closed, so if it starts to seep out of there, I'll have to tape the bloody door shut or something
