Default Odor laundry room

[Had same problem for two years. We have a newer home. Third plumber identified problem. Builder had not put a trap in sink/laundry room. Trap holds water which stops odors from coming up into house. Used Villages plumber. Had to cut out part of wall but second man fixed and painted and could not tell it was done. UOTE=daca55;2039278]The other day I walked into my laundry room and almost fell over from a BO type oder that was coming from our dryer. My first thought was that the vent was blocked with lint that had become wet. Had the dryer and vent cleaned and that helped but we can still smell the oder. The guy who cleaned the dryer vent said it was pretty bad and he said to wet a towel with water and sprinkle some vinegar on it and dry it. We did that but the oder although better is still there. Has anyone ever experienced this? If you have how did you get rid of the oder? Appreciate all replies![/QUOTE]
