Why does my shower drain smell like rotten eggs
Most times when shower drains smell like eggs it’s usually because there is a lot of gunk and hair inside of them. You see when you shower or wash your hair in the shower the hair will get stuck inside the drain and when this happens, water and soap will get stuck on them and after a while, they will begin to smell.
How to deodorize shower drain manually
There are two important ways to deodorize a shower drain manually
1. Remove any gunk, mold, and hair
Use a drain cleaner to remove any gunk and hair that’s inside the shower drain. Sometimes there will be hair on the cover, just make sure to remove it. Make sure to clean the moldy areas as well.
2. Use liquid disinfectant
If you don’t see any hair and gunk then it’s best to pour 1-2 cups of liquid disinfectant (Lysol or fabuloso) into the drain. This will make the drain smell way better than before.
These two methods aren’t permanent methods. So if you want to make sure your shower does not smell again then you should check out these next solutions.
