ABSTRACT:
A cover for a container in which the container has a top, an outer lip, and a tab opener. The cover is a generally planar disc removably placed within a recessed area on the top within the lip. The disc has a screen covering the opening in the top for preventing objects from entering the can while allowing fluid to flow for drinking by a user. The cover further has a slot in which the tab extends partially through the slot such that the slot engages the tab preventing the cover from rotating upon the cover being subjected to external forces. Also, the cover has a notch at the edge of the disc for permitting easy removal of the cover from the container.
