    try dumping water down it. If the house has been empty for a while, the water in the trap may have just evaporated (thus allowing stinky stinky to rise)

      This is the right answer. The P-trap (named for the shape, not the substance) dries out and let’s gasses pass. If you are feeling extra about it, you can add a capful of bleach the first time to sterilize the inside.

      I don’t think it has P trap. I tried pouring in some water the daybi moved in but that didn’t help
