Trash mobs (often just abbreviated as "trash") are dungeon bosses' lackeys. When players enter a dungeon, it is often for the sole reason of killing bosses and getting loot. However, the evil game designers have chosen not to make this task too easy, so they've filled the space in between bosses with countless of lesser, easier mobs. These mobs rarely provide any profit, hence the name "trash mob", and they're essentially just road blocks for the players. They are usually much easier to kill than the actual bosses, but there are some examples where the trash mobs are harder than the actual bosses, games like World of Warcraft. This sometimes result in a patch fix, because it either was a bug or a design flaw.
