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:
“Painting consumes labour not disproportionate to its effect; but a fellow will hack half a year at a block of marble to make something in stone that hardly resembles a man. The value of statuary is owing to its difficulty. You would not value the finest head cut upon a carrot.”
—Samuel Johnson (1709–1784)
