Toilet Splash Guard

Abstract

A toilet splash guard is provided. The present invention is designed to prevent liquid from splashing from the toilet bowl when a male user urinates. The present toilet splash guard comprises a planar shield having an outer edge conforming to the curvature of the toilet bowl and an inner edge defining an open central region through which the user may urinate. At least one U-shaped attachment means is disposed on the planar shield for removably affixing the present invention to the rim of the toilet. Lastly, a handle extends from the planar shield, allowing the user to remove the present invention from the toilet bowl without having to touch any component of the device that has come in contact with the interior of the toilet.
