Try dumping a lot of baking soda down the drain and then several cups of vinegar. I had a second bathroom that I rarely used and it would smell at times and that helped.

The boss man was sufficiently grossed out to send someone over on Saturday to fix the plaster, he said that has to be the cause...so far it smells like he was right but I will give it twenty four hours to dry and then put drain cleaner and bleach down the drain chased by hot water for good measure. Still have not found an elusive drain kit. I found one online but the whole site was in Korean and online ordering always makes me super nervous. I wanted to say thank you for help was super nice.

Rumdiary-IF those things eat only Caucasian flesh I am screwed, I have determined I may be one of the largest woman in South Korea. Seriously I want to see that it looks awesome! Do they show it with English subtitles anywhere? Love, love, love Asian horror flicks.

Dazed- That was my first instinct, I prefer to make my own cleaning supplies as opposed to chemicals, something I learned from a neurotic x room mate. The baking soda and vinegar totally cleaned the whole bathroom, but no effect on the stench, so i went at it with tea tree oil, eucalyptus, and finally and gave in and got tile cleaner...think what I will do is flush the drain with chemicals and maintain with the vinegar. Thanks for reminding me not to give up on the power of vinegar Smile

Get your boss to straighten it out. If he fails to do so, threaten to go home. Simple.
