1. An apparatus, comprising:
a sheet composed of a resilient material, wherein when flexed and then installed in a trapway of a toilet the sheet is configured to take an open concave shape in which a resilience of the resilient material biases the sheet outward against the trapway and in which a gap exists between ends of the sheet and at a bottom of the trapway;
at least one snare protruding from a first side of the sheet and thereby radially into the trapway once installed and configured to snare select items being flushed down the trapway; and
a retention feature extending from the sheet and configured to catch on a perimeter of an inlet of the trapway and thereby aid in holding the apparatus in place, wherein when the sheet takes the open concave shape the retention feature is disposed in a middle portion of the sheet opposite the gap and at a top of the trapway.
