P trap
Does anyone put a makeshift P trap in your sewer hose to prevent sewer smells from traveling back up into your tanks/rv?

There are lots of snow birds where we are staying and just about everyone leaves their gray valve open. It's easy to loose track of time when you're retired.
Many have clothes washers, besides nobody wants to discover their gray tank is full while taking a shower. To prevent sewer smells from going out roof vents we keep a short droop or sag in the middle of our sewer hose run which acts as a trap.
You would think that would create a problem when draining the black tank, but I've never had a problem nor have I seen anyone else clog up their hose.
