How To Stop Splash-Back When Peeing

Let’s be real—splashback when peeing is the unsung villain of bathroom disasters. You think you’ve got perfect aim, but somehow there’s always that stray pee droplet making its way to places it shouldn’t. Whether you’re training a toddler or you’ve got a grown man in the house, the splashback struggle is real. So how do we fix this and keep our toilets—and floors—pee-free? 

Target Practice, Anyone?

First off, give ‘em something to aim for. No, not their hopes and dreams—something practical. Research shows that when there’s a target to aim for (think of the classic "fly in the urinal" trick at airports), accuracy skyrockets. You could go old school with a Cheerio floating in the toilet (seriously, try it with your kids), but if that feels too weird, there’s something called a Pee Patch that works as both a target and a splashback guard. You get a two-for-one deal here: better aim and less mess. Win!

Lower the Altitude

Science time! Pee hits the water with more force the higher up it’s coming from. So, a simple fix is to just sit down. I know, I know, it’s a big ask, but it works. No one’s going to judge you (well, maybe your ego will, but whatever). Plus, it’s a guaranteed way to say goodbye to splashback altogether. If you’re dealing with toddlers, sitting can be a great option to teach them early. For adults, it’s your call. No shame, no mess.

The Pee Patch Solution

OK, maybe the Cheerio trick isn’t quite cutting it and you’re not thrilled about sitting every time. Enter the Pee Patch. Think of it as the millennial-approved solution that lets you pee standing up without needing to mop up afterward. It’s splash-absorbing, mold-resistant, and designed for toilets. No more tiny pee droplets making a break for freedom—this bad boy soaks them up like a pro. It's like a mini superhero cape for your toilet.

Upgrade Your Aim (or Try, Anyway)

If you’re not down with gadgets, you can always try to improve your aim (but let’s be real, most people think they’re accurate when they’re...not). So, if all else fails, make a game out of it. Challenge yourself or your kid to improve their accuracy with some friendly competition. You can always combine that with one of the products mentioned above, like a Pee Patch, to make it even easier and more fun.

Prevention Over Cleanup

Cleaning pee off the toilet seat, floor, or (God forbid) walls isn’t how anyone wants to spend their time. Prevention is key. Whether it’s training young boys or adults, just know there’s a solution. Pee Patch, sitting down, or target practice—pick your poison.

Final Thoughts

At the end of the day, splashback isn’t going to magically disappear, but with the right tools (and maybe a dash of humor), you can seriously reduce the mess. #Pee smarter, not harder. 😏
