        "text": "While often just unpleasant, prolonged exposure to sewer gas can pose health risks. Sewer gas contains methane, hydrogen sulfide, ammonia, and other compounds. High concentrations of hydrogen sulfide can cause headaches, nausea, dizziness, and fatigue. In rare cases, extremely high levels can be fatal. Methane is also highly flammable, posing an explosion risk in enclosed spaces. It's important to address sewer smells promptly to ensure the safety and well-being of your household.",
