smells like nail polish remover?
    #4785725 - 10/11/05 12:09 AM (19 years, 3 months ago)

i had one casing get some cobweb but that was an easy fix... however there is a strong smell in the entire room of nail polish remover and its comming from one or more of my casings (i have a small martha setup).

what could possibly be causing this? it is a very sharp.. almost sour smell.

Could it be an ammonia smell? That happens sometimes with manure that isn't aged enough. You can remove all the trays from the setup and put each in an individual trash bag to hold humidity. Later, you can open each bag individually to find which tray stinks.
