ABSTRACT:
A fly deterrent apparatus that has been designed to keep flies from landing on open food placed on a table. The apparatus has a housing having a top wall into which is detachably received a vertically oriented shaft. A plunger assembly receives the shaft. A wand holder is adjustably mounted on the shaft. An elongated flexible wand is horizontally oriented with its rear end detachably captured by the wand holder. A D.C. motor, a plurality of D.C. batteries, and a switch are connected by electrical wires to form a closed circuit and they are all mounted within a housing. The switch is of the push-on/push-off type and it is structurally connected to the shaft so a predetermined amount of vertical displacement of the shaft will cause the motor to start rotating the shaft thereby causing the elongated wand to travel over the food set on the table top and create a visual disturbance that discourages flies from landing on the uncovered food.
