I just put in a new garbage disposal and I noticed a smell not long after so I started doing the bleach thing, too, and it works. I also dump a box of baking soda down there every couple of weeks and let it sit for a while. But I've also started grinding up my orange peels and lemon peels in there and it makes the kitchen smell fabulous. Hint: Cut the orange peels is smallish pieces as you put them down the disposal. Sometimes the bigger pieces jam and you have to reach down in there to get them loose - yuck!
