ENJOYING a refreshing snack on your patio or in your garden seems like a nice idea, until multiple flies make an appearance.
If you’re looking to ditch the sprays, candles, and swatters, a viral TikTok product might be perfect for you.
TikTok account Dev Does Reviews shared an interesting method of keeping bugs away from your food.
The unique bug-repelling contraption is available for purchase on Amazon for just $16.
“If you live somewhere where you constantly have flies or other bugs flying around you when you’re trying to eat, this will be good for you,” Dev told viewers.
He explained: “It’s sort of like a little fan you place by your food, and it stops all the bugs from coming into the vicinity of it.”

“It does a pretty good job of reminding the bugs that this is your food not theirs, but also it doesn’t harm them so it’s good for both parties,” Dev continued.
Dev’s video showed the fan in action as various people ate snacks while enjoying some sunshine.
While many TikTok users pondered how the contraption worked, the product description explained the method to the madness.
“Bugs avoid this fan and will refuse to fly anywhere near it. The holographic pattern on the blades bend the light while spinning, creating an unnatural environment that insects fly away from,” the manufacturer said.
Dev’s followers took to the comments section to share their opinions on the bug-repelling method.
“My clumsy self would get my fingers chopped off,” joked one viewer.
Another person asked: “Can I have one that goes on my head?”
