How come the water in my swimming pools smells like butthole?



My swimingpools hold about 50 gallons of water about 4 foot..
Its vinyal , in the grass ...the water was getting a little cloudy so we put some soaket in there ..A few days later i went to go swimming and the water was crystal clear but stunk...it smells like a butt ...it was so bad i thought one of my kids pooped in there ..but they didnt it was just the stinky water...it has been a week now and stills smells like butthole...my husband says it the sockett chemical , but i have used that in the past and it has never mad my water smell like a butt...what is causeing this horid smell

Hi Dee, did you put chlorine in it? That should help you. It sounds like the ph is off, that always causes a icky stinky smell like that. Although I have to tell you I totally cracked up when I read Dachman's answer.
Unless your body anatomy is different from mine or you are some sort of freak gymnast I cant smell my own butt.

So either you are freak or you smell butt for a points of reference when things don't smell good.

Which is it.
Is it possible that it is not the pool that stenches--but the anus leftovers inside your nostrils taht smell??

brown-nosing is a bad habit - just keep your nose out of oothers peoples rear sections and you wont have this problem again probally
oops my bad i couldn't find a toilet.
Hi,

If your pool is one of those toy
types. It will probably be the
grass underneath the pool
that is wet and rotting. Take
a look under the pool and I
bet thats it.

Take Care,

How big is the pool?
Is it a hard plastic one or an inflatable?
Do you use well water or municipal?
Do you have any test results for the water? If not can you take a sample of water to the pool store and have them test for:
Total chlorine
Free chlorine
pH
Alkalinity
Cyanuric acid

Bring the results back and post them here or feel free to email me at robandliz1992@yahoo.com and I'll be more than happy to help.
