So I have a hyper sense of smell which is bloody annoying I know but the smell in my house is absolutely abominable and I have no idea what it is. The smell is chemically, sort of hospitally. We don’t use bleach, the house is clean - I’m buggered if I know what’s causing it but the house reeks of it. When I’ve been away for a few days and come home the smell is completely overwhelming. When we are away I can smell it on the clothes we’ve brought from home. The house didn’t used to smell like this so it’s something we’re doing but I just don’t know what.
The only thing I could think of which would be so pervasive was possibly that we’ve installed a water softener when we moved in but I have smelled the salt stuff we put in and it doesn’t really smell of anything and the room it’s in isn’t any worse than any other room.
My dh has a very poor sense of smell and has no idea what I’m on about but it’s making me SO miserable.
Can anyone help? I just don’t know who to even ask, if there were professionals I’d get them in!!
