Smell?? Entire rooms smells

[BeardieLover<3]

Ok so recently my room has started to stink! I just cleaned my beardies tank it smelt pretty bad even though i clean it biweekly. I bathed the dragon itself and all of her accessories. I have my Dubia roaches in a small container and crickets in a 10 gallon terrarium, when i have them ( currently out) I thinks its the dubias bc everything i open the lid it smells terrible. I only bought 60 roaches from the pet store and about 200 crickets. The roches tank has , 2 egg crates.. thats it. I mist the tank sometimes. But other than that i leave them alone. The frass is sooo little like tiny tiny bit. I have no idea why it smells so bad Can someone help me out?

Make sure your sweeping the frass out -- too much build up will make the tank stink - I keep my dubias in the same room I have the dragons and I work in that room as its my office but the only time I smell the roaches if I litterly stand over the tank --- I am wondering if its the cricket tank your smelling - you can test it out move one of them out of the room and go from there -- I had a bad musty oder going w/ Blazes tank here about 6 months ago could not figure out where the smell was coming from I ended up taking the whole tank apart and used the F 10 I have in the tank disinfecting all basking decor etc and it finally got rid of that smell -- it smelled like dirty clothes that had been sitting for awhile --

Sadies right , it is the crickets , they’re notoriously stinky

I have no crickets though? And i only smell the crickets when i open the lid when i do have them. When i smell Sunny's tank it its terrible. But i just cleaned it... could it be the lizard itself?

Could be get him out and smell him- take your tank apart and disinfect it w/ some rescue or zoo meds wipeout- it should kill whatever is causing odor in tank if that is what's causing smell-
