'spread everywhere' is the definition.
'globalise' can be an answer for 'spread' ('spread'->'globalize' is in my internal thesaurus and 'ize'->'ise'). I'm not certain of the 'everywhere' bit.

'damaging middle of smelly bag soil' is the wordplay.
'damaging' is an anagram indicator.
'middle of' says to take the centre.
The middle of 'smelly' is 'el'.
'el'+'bag'+'soil'='elbagsoil'
'elbagsoil' anagrammed gives 'GLOBALISE'.
