Random information on the term ” Mothball”:

Urinal deodorizer blocks (commonly known as urinal cakes, urinal cookies, urinal biscuits (piscuits), urinal donuts, toilet lollies, trough lollies, urinal mints, urinal pucks, hockey pucks, toilet pucks, or urinal peons (pee-ons) are small disinfectant blocks that are added to urinals. Those containing para-dichlorobenzene (pDCB) may be called para blocks. Besides disinfecting, the purpose of these blocks is to reduce or mask odors from restroom urinals. They are placed above the urinal drain, often in the confines of a small plastic trap (urinal screen) that prevents their loss down the drain when they dissolve to a small size.

Urinal deodorizer blocks are tablets (usually cylindrical in shape).

The chemicals composing the block may vary. The original formulations were of naphthalene and later para-dichlorobenzene, both now known to be hazardous to health by inhalation. In some areas, the use of para-dichlorobenzene toilet blocks has been banned; in other areas para-dichlorobenzene blocks or “para blocks” are still used. Para-dichlorobenzene and naphthalene blocks do not readily dissolve in water or urine, but easily sublime into the air, creating a sickly-sweet odor and anti-mould and disinfectant effects.
