: Hi all!
: Every time we run our dishwasher we get a sewer gas smell. The dishwasher is next to the sink and I am guessing it is sucking the water out of the trap and allowing the smell to come up into the kitchen, ugh! What can we do about this?

Sound like you may have a vent problem.Has your sink had problems draining ? That would indicate a venting problem as well. You may have access to the venting through cleanouts under the kitchen sink.
