Why does your room smell really bad?

If the odor is really bad, you likely have spoiled food or dead rodents hidden somewhere. Dirty or even moldy clothes can add to the odor, and mice sometimes crawl under clothes or other objects in the floor before dying. Pets can add to the odor, so if you have any, you need to clean up after them and wash them regularly. If your room stinks, you should clean it.
