: My clothes washer drains into a dry well in my back yard. Recently I noticed that when the washer is draining, I smell a foul odor coming from the location of the dry well. The odor is bad enough that I can not sit im my backyard when the washer is running. What can I do to solve this problem? Use a drain maintenance product. The live enzymes in these products will help to keep the "smell" from coming back. Treat once a month when no hot water will be entering the drywell for a while.
