We have looked everywhere and are unable to determine the source. It smells like a cross between sewer gas and a dead animal. There are no flys and the ajacent rooms do not smell.

Check to see if any animal has gotten in the dryer vent duct, fallen down and died there. (Very common in a basement where the vent is up at ground level.)

I see two possibilities:
1) you may have a pinhole leak in one of your hoses and mold has delevoped around it
2) your drain fom the washing machine may not be sealed correctly and odor is coming from here

Other than dead something in the dryer vent, we found that if we don't wash our hand towels right away they can get pretty rank in the hamper, and other items pick up the smell. good luck.

Stop washing your clothes in the bath with you. Try using a washing machine. It may actually work !!
