    The existing 2" galvanized has a few holes in the bottom and has been depositing dishwasher and sink waste under my house. Probably a couple weeks. My plan is to let it dry out for a couple days then replace with ABS. We don't put food down the disposal because of clogging issues before.
    Do I need to be concerned with the food particles under the house since there isn't any poop in it?

    Thanks for your help.

    If there is a lot of food debris, I would get it up. If it is just water, don't worry.

    Thanks Smooky. I'll try to scrape it up or something and try to bag it.
