The Treva Bug Fan is a chemical-free mechanical deterrent designed to keep flies and other insects away from food-contact surfaces. It uses a low-voltage DC motor to spin two soft-touch polymer blades. These blades feature holographic patterns that create a flickering effect as they spin; this visual disruption, combined with the movement of the air, is designed to interfere with the navigation of flies.
The unit is made from ABS plastic and is optimized for AA battery power. For safety, the blades are designed to stop immediately upon contact with a hand or object, preventing injury or motor burnout. While the fan is highly effective on tabletops in shaded areas, the holographic "flicker" effect may be less noticeable to insects in very bright, direct midday sun. The battery door is held by a plastic clip, which should be handled gently during battery changes to ensure long-term retention.
- Food-Safe Design: Provides a way to manage pests around meals without the use of chemical sprays or scents.
- Automatic Safety Stop: The soft blades and low-torque motor ensure the fan is safe for use on family dining tables.
- Quiet Operation: Designed to provide a deterrent without creating significant noise that would disrupt conversation.
If you need a more active zapping solution for mosquitoes that also includes a lantern, the GoGreen Zappy rechargeable lantern is a practical alternative.
