Traps are the "S" or "U" shaped pipes under the drains on your sinks. These traps are designed to allow you to clean the area plus if you drop a ring or other item in the drain you can often find it in the trap if it is heavier. If you are removing the trap all you need is a pipe wrench and a bucket to lower the piece of pipe into when you remove it.
