Filed:

Dec 19, 1994

Appl. No.:

8/358462

Inventors:

Marvin F. Preiser - Middletown NY
Peter F. Vogt - Loveland OH

Assignee:

PMC Specialties Group, Inc. - Rockey River OH

International Classification:

A01N 2502

US Classification:

424405

Abstract:

A method of repelling birds from a source, comprising the step of applying to the source an aversely effective amount of a liquid bird aversion solution including a bird aversion agent in an amount of from 5 to 50% by weight of a total weight of the solution; a terpene chosen from terpene hydrocarbons, oxygenated terpenes and a mixture of terpene hydrocarbons and oxygenated terpenes in an amount of from 10% to 50% by weight of a total weight of the solution; and alkylesters chosen from saturated fatty acids having from 4-20 carbon atoms and unsaturated fatty acids having from 10-18 carbon atoms esterified with an alcohol having 1-8 carbon atoms in an amount of from 10 to 50% by weight of a total weight of the solution. The bird aversion agent can be selected from methyl anthranilate, ortho-amino acetophenone, 2-amino-1,5-dimethyl acetophenone, veratroyl amine, dimethyl anthranilate, cinnamic aldehyde or esters, and combinations of these compounds.

PMC Specialties Group Inc. - Rocky River OH

International Classification:

A01N 2502

US Classification:

424405

Abstract:

A liquid bird aversion solution having methyl anthranilate in an amount of from 15 to 50% by weight of a total weight of the solution; d-limonene in an amount of from 10 to 50% by weight of a total weight of the solution; and isopropyl myristate in an amount of from 10 to 50% by weight of a total weight of the solution. The liquid solution is lighter than water and forms a thin liquid film on a surface of a source when applied to the source.

Abstract:

A solid free flowing bird aversion compound comprising a bird aversion agent in an amount of from 10 to 80%, preferably from 30-75%, by weight of a total weight of the compound; and an inorganic or organic carrier in an amount of from 20 to 90%, preferably from 25-70%, by weight of a total weight of the compound. A bird aversion solution which is lighter than water comprising a bird aversion agent in an amount of from 5 to 50% by weight of a total weight of the solution; a terpene hydrocarbon and oxygenated derivative thereof in an amount of from 10 to 50% by weight of a total weight of the solution; and alkylesters selected from the group consisting of saturated fatty acids having from 4-20 carbon atoms and unsaturated fatty acids having from 10-18 carbon atoms esterified with an alcohol having from 1-8 carbon atoms in an amount of from 10 to 50% by weight of a total weight of the solution. A bird aversion emulsion, consisting essentially of a bird aversion agent in an amount of from 5 to 30% by weight of a total weight of the emulsion; a terpene hydrocarbon and oxygenated derivative thereof in an amount of from 5 to 10% by weight of a total weight of the emulsion; gums selected from the group consisting of storage polysaccharides, pectins, gelatins, xanthans, cellulose derivatives and alginate in an amount of from 0. 5 to 10% by weight of a total weight of the emulsion; and water in an amount of from 70 to 80% by weight of a total weight of the emulsion.
