Urinal screens are provided including an outer ring and a web portion bounded by the outer ring and formed from a plurality of web strings disposed in a mesh pattern, such that a plurality of open areas are defined among the web strings. The web portion includes a vaulted portion. Urinal screen assemblies are also provided and include a urinal screen and a bioenzymatic block containing odor combatting chemistry disposed in a void formed by the vaulted portion of the urinal screen.

An automatic dispensing device for volatile fluid operable to apply one or more agent to a local environment for more than 14 days. Preferred devices dispense a first agent for air freshening, and may optionally dispense a second agent, such as a drain cleaner. A workable drain cleaner is structured to permit a slow release of drain cleaning agent. A dispensing device may nonexclusively operate by evaporation of volatile fluid from a carrier material that is infused with the volatile fluid; gravity-induced drip from a bulk supply of volatile fluid through a small orifice onto an emanator; osmotic transfer of volatile fluid from a bulk supply; gas-pump drive of volatile fluid at controlled pressure; or diffusion of volatile fluid through a wall of a container of bulk volatile fluid; and combinations thereof.

The invention relates to packaged deodorizing products, and in particular, packaged deodorizing products that find use in toileting. In some aspects, the packaged deodorizing product includes a solid substrate such as rice paper, gelatin sheets, or any other suitable substrate, that disintegrates when exposed to water such as in a toilet bowl, where the solid substrate has been pre-infused with a scenting agent, for example, an essential oil. The deodorizing product is removed from the packaging and placed directly into a toilet bowl prior to toileting, thereby expediting the action of the scenting agent. After toileting, the scenting agent is substantially removed when the toilet is flushed. The invention can also be used as a deodorizing product without deployment in liquid water.

A dissolvable effervescent toilet deodorizer includes a combination of citric acid, sodium bicarbonate, and essential oils. In one method of use, a user would drop the dissolvable effervescent toilet deodorizer into the toilet bowl just prior to using the toilet. Once dropped into the toilet bowl, the dissolvable effervescent deodorizer begins to dissolve and effervesce. As a result of the effervescence, the dissolution occurs more rapidly and also disperses the deodorizer/scent into the toilet water and air to more effectively neutralize and/or prevent malodors.
