Urinal Deodorizer Block
Urinal deodorizer blocks, also often called urinal cakes, para blocks, urinal mints, urinal pucks, urinal peons (pee-ons), or urinal cookies, are the small disinfectant blocks found in urinals.
The purpose of these blocks is to disinfect and reduce or mask the odor of restroom urinals. They are placed above the urinal drain (often in the confines of a small plastic trap known as a "Puck Caddy" or "urinal screen" that prevents their loss down the drain when they dissolve to a small size).

Famous quotes containing the word block:
“Dug from the tomb of taste-refining time,
Each form is exquisite, each block sublime.
Or good, or bad,—disfigur’d, or deprav’d,—
All art, is at its resurrection sav’d;
All crown’d with glory in the critic’s heav’n,
Each merit magnified, each fault forgiven.”
—Martin Archer, Sir Shee (1769–1850)
