An apparatus for deterring flies by reversing their flight path has a transparent container that includes a plurality of outwardly facing planar surfaces. A liquid, preferably water, is disposed in the container. A penny or similar planar object formed of copper is preferably secured at each outwardly facing planar surface. Planar objects formed of a material other than copper or having a different color, shape, or varying degree of reflectivity can be used instead of or along with the penny. A hook or other means for hanging the container is provided. An optional battery or AC powered motor may be included to rotate the device around a center vertical axis. A less expensive version that is formed of a flexible transparent plastic container is also shown and described. The containers are either filled with liquid and sealed or are fillable by the user.

The invention relates to a method for producing a bird protection device arid to a bird protection device. According to the invention, a method for producing a bird protection device is proposed, wherein the bird protection device is made of an at least partially transparent material and contains an optical structure visible to a bird's eye. Here, the method comprises a radiation input, wherein the radiation input is implemented on and/or in the partially transparent material for forming the optical structure. The radiation input is preferably laser radiation. Suitable lasers for the radiation input are, for example, CO2 lasers with a wavelength of 1064 nm, picosecond lasers with a wavelength of 532 nm or nanosecond lasers with a wavelength of 532 nm. In one embodiment of the invention, the bird protection device furthermore comprises an element for increasing the contrast, wherein, for forming the optical structure, the radiation input is implemented on and/or in the element for increasing the contrast.

Fly Balls repel files because flies are frightened and confused by the multiple thousands of reflective images they see whenever they are in a Fly Balls' no flies zone. A combination of a flies 4,000 eyes; faceted bead(s) reflections; and multiple water molecule reflections create a visual reflective predator threat to a fly.
