ABSTRACT:
The present invention is an apparatus that prevents crawling insects such as ants from infesting a pet food dish. The invention accomplishes this task without the use of any chemical pesticides, bait or electronics. The apparatus prevents the ants from detecting the smell of pet food by preventing the smell from reaching a critical portion of the path from the food source, to the ground. The apparatus may also be configured to attach to the bottom of table legs such as those used at a picnic or other outdoor gathering.
