Does your garbage disposal stink? It can be awful when there’s a foul smell in your kitchen, where you prepare or even eat your food. Here are handy tips on how to deal with a smelly garbage disposal.
1. Use the garbage disposal only for organic or biodegradable materials. Do not place rubber, plastic, large bones, or even fibrous or starchy food as they can lodge and block the pipes. Eggshells and small fruit pits are okay.
2. Run the garbage disposal a bit longer than usual to remove all the particles. Let it run for another minute or so after the grinding noise stops.
3. Avoid putting grease down the drain. Grease accumulate in the unit and slows the motor.
4. Cut into smaller pieces the food items you think are harder for the garbage disposal to process. Make it easy on your garbage disposal to make it last longer.
