    Abstract: The present invention consists of a removable male toilet over spray shield constructed from lightweight thermoplastic or its equivalent that is provided with a semi-elliptical upstanding wall which removably sits within the lower portion of the inner rim of a toilet bowl when the toilet seat is upstanding. The device is provided with flange attachment means which merely sits upon the toilet seat rim when in use. The device may thus be easily lifted onto and away from the toilet bowl rim without complicated attachment means. To facilitate insertion and removal on a toilet, a handle may be provided within the semi-elliptical walls, at the rear, or on the top portion of the device. A domed cover may also be provided in order to prevent upward spray from falling onto floors and walls. The device is intended to promote proper toileting in young boys and may thus be provided with stickers or amusing raised images to ensure proper urine channeling.
