    Nice Profile!

    It’s not actually the egg that smells terrible—it’s a chemical gas called hydrogen sulfide, which is produced when bacteria break down the sulfates in the egg into organic matter. In the absence of oxygen, this is what produces the foul odor. Many times the rotten smell could be coming from your floor, counter tops, sink, water, and water heater, among other things. Getting rid of that rotten smell is not difficult and does not take much effort.
