Smelly flat

[Keitai]

My flat smells when I first walk in. A bit like my gran's bungalow in the years before she died. How do u get rid of the smell?


I asked some middle aged women in the supermarket and when I said it might be coming up from kitchen sink they said put neat bleach down there. Is that ok to do?

Actually, I don't know what is causing it.
Any advice?

Am a bit concerned that you don't know it's ok to put neat bleach down the sink! Can put it down the bog too

Sounds like a musty smell too, if like your gran's place. Give the flat a really good clean, top to bottom, floors, linen, the rubbish bin, fridge, the whole lot. Open windows when drying clothes as that can make places smell musty, and check for any damp as that can smell too.

You need to do more Detective work, where is the strongest smell, does it go away after a while, is it stronger if you turn on an electrical appliance, You say its a flat could the smell be coming from next door. Have you had a lot of flies in your property recently ( Dead Mouse, Bird etc .) ???

Is she haunting you? Get an exorcist.
Do you have carpets, curtains & fabric covered settee ? Shampooing carpets & steam cleaning fabric curtains/chair coverings should help.

I’d invite the Middle aged woman back, give them a good seeing too with the window open and see if the smell changes.

Try it with a different woman every few days.
