What should I do if the sewer smells bad? In fact, the method is very simple. Just peel some yam skins and boil them in water for about 10 minutes. The water in the pot will gradually turn brown. Spray the boiled water on the drain mouth to quickly eliminate the peculiar smell.

The anti-odor of the sewer is mainly caused by the fermentation of waste residues. After the yam skin is boiled, the benzoquinone contained in it will dissolve in the water and directly contact with the odor generated after fermentation to make it disappear.

First of all, check whether the sewer is unobstructed and whether there are foreign objects affecting the drainage. If there is a blockage, you can pour an appropriate amount of alkali into the sewer, which is more effective for removing grease and rust in the pipe.

Secondly, if the sewer is not blocked but smells bad, you can use the principle of water sealing, fill it with clean water in a thin plastic bag, seal the bag tightly, and put it on the mouth of the sewer to seal it tightly to seal off the smell. It is best to keep clear water in the bowl-shaped water storage structure of the sewer mouth at the same time, which can effectively prevent the odor from coming out.

In addition, it should also be noted that in the hot season, it is necessary to keep water in the sewer floor drain, otherwise it is prone to peculiar smell.
