There are several good products designed specifically for cleaning the
interior of the garbage disposal and I've found them quite effective. In
addition, if the baffle is removeable (most are), it should be removed and
given a thorough scrubbing on the underside on a regular basis. Garbage
disposals do not have to smell.
