   Pour some water into the floor drain, about once every two weeks or so. It will prevent the trap from drying out, which will prevent the gas from getting through.

   Here's a very easy way to take care of the problem.

   I put one in a basement shower drain that likely doesn't have a p-trap. Some days it was smelly; some days it was smellier.

   $30 later the problem is solved completely. Absolutely no smell.
