I have a six year old fifth wheel. The odor from the holding tanks is aweful!!! I have tried every chemical in Camping World's catalog. I have tried filling the tanks 1/3 and driving around so it will slosh loose any crud in the tanks, but it still smells aweful when I flush. Can you use Rid X in an rv?
Please advise. |

It is used to get rid of the bleach smell from sanitizing the freshwater system, so maybe it will work in the holding tanks as well  |
