Considering this, what causes smelly kitchen drains?
Kitchen sink smells can have one of two causes:
Rotting food stuck in the drain or garbage disposal, or. Sewer gas is leaking in through the plumbing vent or drain trap.

A smelly sink is usually caused by bacteria build up from grease, fat and food which have been flushed down the drain. These will then get stuck in the pipes causing the familiar rotten egg smell.
