Benefits of technology

[0011] It is an object of the present invention to provide a liquid repellant which utilizes naturally occurring ingredients and has long-lasting effectiveness.
[0013] It is another object of the present invention to provide a liquid repellant using naturally occurring ingredients and which repellant is effective against animals and which repellant has minimal toxicity.
[0014] It is a still further object of the present invention to provide a method for naturally repelling both domestic and other animals having an olfactory capability.
[0015] It is a further object of the present invention to provide a method of manufacture of a repellant having relatively non-toxic ingredients which can be readily carried out at a reasonable cost.
[0016] It is yet another object of the present invention to provide a liquid repellant which is long lasting, environmentally friendly and can be applied to surfaces not readily susceptible to treatment by the prior art dry only repellent.

Problems solved by technology

Many of the known repellants are based on man made chemicals and for this reason, are not considered desirable for ecological reasons.
However, the dry repellent formula of U.S. Pat. No. 6,159,474 is limited in its application because it can not be used on vertical or ceiling surfaces, applied in difficult to reach locations, or utilized on surfaces where the granules can be hazardous, such as sidewalks, patios, paths, and other walkways.
There were two major problems with making a liquid formulation.
First was solubility.
The essential oils and oleoresin do not ordinarily mix well in an aqueous solution.

example 1

[0043] Ready to Use Animal Repellant was Formulated in the Following Percentages by Weight:

Oil of black pepper0.5Oleoresin of black pepper (40% piperine)0.5Oleoresin of capsicum0.55Oleoresin of rosemary0.05polyvinyl acetate adhesive9.0Kelgum ®0.07Mapeg ®0.5Lecithin3.0Acetic acid0.6Soybean oil5.0Water80.23

[0044] The composition of Example 1 was manufactured as follows:

A. Premix 1

[0045] 1) Soybean oil, Mapeg®, and lecithin are added together and mixed until the composition is uniform; [0046] 2) The remaining oils and oleoresins and are then added to the composition and mixing is continued until uniform.

B. Premix 2 [0047] 1) The water and Kelgum® were combined and mixed until uniform; [0048] 2) Water-soluble polyvinyl acetate adhesive is then added and the composition is again mixed until uniform.

C. Premix 1 and Premix 2 were then combined and mixing continued until uniform.

example 2

[0049] Ready to Use Animal Repellant was Formulated in the Following Percentages by Weight:

Oil of Black Pepper0.5Oleoresin of Black Pepper (40% piperine)0.5Oleoresin of Capsicum0.55Oleoresin of Rosemary0.05Polyvinyl acetate adhesive9.0Polysorbate 803.2Glycerol monostearate4.8Water81.4

[0050] The composition of Example 2 was manufactured as follows:

A. Premix 1

[0051] 1) The oleoresin of black pepper was heated to 80° C. until it formed a liquid; [0052] 2) The glycerol monostearate and polysorbate 80 were then added and mixed until uniform; [0053] 3) The composition is then cooled to 50° C. and then the remaining oil, and oleoresins were added and mixed until uniform.

B. Premix 2 [0054] 1) Water-soluble polyvinyl acetate adhesive is combined with the water component.

C. Combine Premix 1 and Premix 2.

example 3

[0055] Animal Repellant Concentrate was Formulated in the Following Percentages by Weight:

Oil of Black Pepper4.0Oleoresin of Black Pepper (40% piperine)4.0Oleoresin of Capsicum4.4Oleoresin of Rosemary0.4Polyvinyl acetate adhesive19.0Polysorbate 805.6Glycerol monostearate8.4Water54.2

[0056] The composition of Example 3 was manufactured as follows:

A. Premix 1

[0057] 1) The oleoresin of black pepper was heated to 80° C. until it formed a liquid; [0058] 2) The glycerol monostearate and polysorbate 80 were then added and mixed until uniform; [0059] 3) The composition is cooled to 50° C. and then the remaining oil, and oleoresins were added and mixed until uniform.

B. Premix 2 [0060] 1) Water-soluble polyvinyl acetate adhesive is combined with the water component.

C. Combine Premix 1 and Premix 2.

Abstract

The present invention provides a novel liquid animal repellant composition which is environmentally safe, non-toxic, long-lasting and efficacious against a wide of animals such as dogs, cats, raccoons, skunks, mice, rats, squirrels, chipmunks, deer, etc.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0001] 1. Field of Invention [0002] The present invention relates to liquid repellant compositions, a method of repelling animals and a method of manufacture of a repellant composition. [0003] 2. Description of Prior Art [0004] Various types of repellant compositions are well known in the art. The nature of the repellant composition will vary depending upon the species of animal, bird or insect which it is intended to repel. Many of the known repellants are based on man made chemicals and for this reason, are not considered desirable for ecological reasons. Many repellant compositions have also been proposed which are environmentally friendly in that they utilize naturally occurring ingredients. Among such repellants are those shown in U.S. Pat. No. 4,455,304 which teaches the use of a composition for repelling birds. This bird repelling composition includes a finely divided garlic constituent and a finely divided cayenne pepper constituent.
