My refrigerator...

My refrigerator smells TERRIBLE! We don't have anything in it but water. We've tried cleaning it with clorox, baking soda, and we've put coffee in there and nothing helps. There may be a dead gecko in there...lol...since ours got loose last semester. :lol: We haven't opened it since last week haha. WHAT CAN I DO?!

As bad as this may sound, you may have to or get someone to take the fridge apart and get the dead gecko out of it. If not, the smell will only become stronger as time goes on. A decaying animal smell can not be covered up very easily lol. If you don't remove the animal then just buy a new fridge and the problem would be solved then. Maybe looking underneath and behind the fridge too. Maybe the gecko is in one of those two spots instead of actually inside the fridge.

Either take it apart, get a new one or just try to wait for the smell to go away.. If you bought it at wal mart you could just take it back and trade it for a new one lol

umm...just keep fresh poop in it. It will take away that odd smell. lol
Or put some cat litter in it, with the poop. Fresh Step would work.
Ok, i really dont know what to tell you. Just try to find out what stinks so bad haha....

Well I'm not sure if it's a dead gecko but that's all it could be. It's been smelling like that since Christmas Break. I mean it smells absolutely terrible. I don't have the receipt for it anymore so I can't take it back. Sad

Maybe I can have someone look behind it or under it...but the smell is really bad when you open it up.

**crazytaxidriver** · 03-21-2005, 04:23 PM

hahah get a new one... that's about the only way to fully get rid of the smell

**Beef** · 03-21-2005, 06:10 PM

Get one just like it and then return the one that smells bad with the recepit from the new one Big Grin

**15thRegionCrazy** · 03-21-2005, 07:55 PM

Good idea Beef.. have you done that before or something lol.. it really does work.. I know a lot of people who have done that

**Cali** · 03-21-2005, 10:39 PM

I'm a poor college kid and my mommy sure won't buy another one. Sad

Maybe I can talk her into it though. You guys just don't even know.

**crazytaxidriver** · 03-21-2005, 11:01 PM

Get her to come down and smell it cali lol

**Beef** · 03-21-2005, 11:36 PM

Nope....but I've watched a friend do it :lol:

**Cali** · 03-22-2005, 12:28 AM

LOL she needs to so she'll buy me a new one!

Try some febreeze... how about cleaning it with vinegar? I know that sounds worse but it may work.
