Weird smells and strange noises are a part of life. The problem is that when those smells and sounds happen inside your home, they can mean trouble. And that “trouble” can be wildly expensive ...
Phantosmia (phantom smell), also called an olfactory hallucination or a phantom odor, [1] is smelling an odor that is not actually there. This hallucination is intrinsically suspicious as the formal evaluation and detection of relatively low levels of odour particles is itself a very tricky task in air epistemology.
Early reports showed a strange smell was first reported between Vancouver and Kelso. By tracking winds, we can estimate the path that it may have taken, briefly drifting down near Vancouver WA ...
The depth of penetration depends on the frequency of the microwaves and the tissue type. The Active Denial System ("pain ray") is a less-lethal directed energy weapon that employs a microwave beam at 95 GHz; a two-second burst of the 95 GHz focused beam heats the skin to a temperature of 130 °F (54 °C) at a depth of 1/64th of an inch (0.4 mm) and is claimed to cause skin pain without lasting ...
Reheat last night's fish dinner or burn a bag of popcorn, and you could find yourself living with the odor for days. The steam cleaning method with lemon or vinegar should not only clean but ...
Thioacetone has an intensely foul odor. Like many low molecular weight organosulfur compounds, the smell is potent and can be detected even when highly diluted. [5] In 1889, an attempt to distill the chemical in the German city of Freiburg was followed by cases of vomiting, nausea, and unconsciousness in an area with a radius of 0.75 kilometres (0.47 mi) around the laboratory due to the smell.

Dehydration can cause your urine to have a concentrated ammonia smell, which therein may leave a weird odor lingering. Drinking enough water dilutes the waste and in turn, makes your pee and your ...
Found in Asia, Australia, Hawaii, southern Mexico, and Central and South America, [10] P. cinnabarinus grows to 13 cm (5 in) tall, and has a more offensive odor than P. indusiatus. It attracts flies from the genus Lucilia (family Calliphoridae), rather than the house flies of the genus Musca that visit P. indusiatus. [29]
