Abstract: A floor drain cover is provided having a substantially rectangular frame defined by a first and second parallel outer frame member, perpendicular cross members connecting the outer frame members together, and an apertured screen positioned over the frame to prevent solid debris from passing therethrough and into a floor drain. The device is positioned over an existing floor drain to prevent debris from clogging the floor drain grate or drain interior. The apertured screen is elevated above the ground and positioned along the upper surfaces of the frame to collect falling debris, while debris is separated from free flowing water entering through the frame sides and ends by way of side frame member apertures and screened end portions. The cover can be periodically removed and cleaned, while the underlying drain is kept largely clean of debris that would otherwise require internal cleaning.
