What can I do about my smelly toilet?

I am a very clean person and I keep a clean house. I clean my bathroom about once a day because it%26#039;s a room that always gets messy. I have recently started smelling a urine smell coming from my toilet. I have tried everything to take the smell away but it wont go. I use bleach, Lysol, Mr. Clean, Comet, Pine-sol, etc etc. I have tried all kinds of bowl cleaners and deodorizers too. What should I do? And where do you think the smell is coming from? THANKS!!!!!

What can I do about my smelly toilet?
they make them deodorizers that clip to the inside of your toilet !! But you may have a plugged exhaust pipe ...idk I am not a plumber !
Reply:Maybe it%26#039;s leaking or there%26#039;s some urine on the floor
Reply:I would call a plumber and have him ream the pipe out. That may solve the problem. As you say, you have cleaned it very well, that should not be happening. Also get the deorderizer tablets for the tank Good luck..
Reply:Drop a bleach tablet into the tank...don%26#039;t use those under the rim things that clip on. The standing water will be chlorinated and won%26#039;t smell....
Reply:Are you sure it%26#039;s coming from inside the toilet? It could be from the surrounding area... especially if the toilet is ever used by males.
Reply:Do you have a carpet in the bathroom ? If so it may well be urine that has soaked into the carpet /loo mat around the base of the toilet. Clean with a mild solution of soapy water ,do not use bleach otherwise you will discolour the carpet. If it is the loo mat then change it more frequently.If you have cushion floor or laminated flooring clean with a spray cleaner filled with warm soapy water ,spray lightly so as not to soak the wood and make it bubble.Dry thoroughly after rubbing clean.
Reply:whatever you do dont do what brendan suggests.Mixing bleach %26amp; ammonia can be deadly.
Reply:okay...calm down! what you need to do is pour some regular coke into your toilet, the carbonation should eat the underlying bacteria away...leave it in for like ten minutes and then flush..also doing this will help clean stains away to...good luck, hope it helps ;)
Reply:if you have boys in the house it could be in the floor boards not the toilet
Reply:plumber my friend. if mr. clean can%26#039;t do it, no one can!
Reply:I believe your sewage line needs to be cleaned. Call out a sewage man. Good Luck
Reply:Maybe there%26#039;s something wrong with your loo? Try a plumber perhaps?
Reply:How old is the toliet/bathroom? Maybe it%26#039;s the pipes? How many people use the toliet in the home? Could it be that someone has %26#039;bad aim%26#039; and they miss the bowl?
Reply:you probably have a leak around the wax seal that fit inside and around the toilet that connect to the floor where all the waste run out to your sewage line have it replace .
Reply:yea, have you checked the floor around the toilet and the outside of the toilet, if that is all clean then try a plumber.
Reply:try so klin
Reply:whats on the floor,carpet etc,it may be that
Reply:Use some hot water. Yes some detergent with a good smell. Let it sit for few minutes. Along with baking soda.





This should unclog your toliet and maybe push what odor is coming from there.
Reply:check your bathroom rugs and make sure it%26#039;s not that, clean the floors good, use white vinigar or hydrogen peroxid ein the toilet to disenfect and make it smell better, if that doesnt work call a plumber
Reply:Maybe u should call some expert for that :P Sorry I don%26#039;t have Idea where it comes from....


Actually I have but I dont know how to say it....


BTW this is %26quot;stinky%26quot; Question LOL
Reply:I went to the site %26quot;Music Man%26quot; told you to go to. Sounds pretty good %26amp; you can also see it in the dark so you know where it%26#039;s coming from.


A lot less expensive than calling a plumber.
