For many mothers and fathers, cleaning the toilet is easily the least favorite chore in the house.
But now that job is looking a little easier — and a lot less messy — thanks to a clever invention by a pair of local parents.
“We invented the Potty Protector,” said Cindy Covington of Blackfoot, CEO of Potty Protector.
It may sound silly at first, but this spray shield that attaches onto your toilet bowl works. It keeps the human waste where it belongs — inside of the toilet.
“It guards all of that extra fine mist spray that just happens with little boys, and even teenagers, and even grown men, and even older, older men,” Covington said.
For Covington and her five boys, the Potty Protector has saved them serious cleaning time. She said it’s like having a portable urinal without the expense of a urinal.
“The only thing that I ended up having to wipe down at the end of the week was dust. I’ve never had to actually dust my toilet before,” Covington said.
Covington said the idea came about after she kept complaining to her husband, Chris, about constantly cleaning up after their boys.
“He came back in with this makeshift bucket, stuck it on my toilet and I (said), ‘What is that?’ A couple days later and even weeks later I didn’t have the overspray and so I didn’t have to clean,” Covington said.
Soon their friends wanted try the Potty Protector.
