Abstract
A method for discouraging ruminants from browsing edible material normally eaten by such ruminants comprises contacting the material and/or the region adjacent such material with a repellent composition. The repellent composition contains as the active repellent ingredient an aliphatic aldehyde, preferably having from six to twelve carbon atoms. The repellent composition can also be applied to the material as a repellent-producing composition that is an oxidation precursor of the aliphatic aldehyde.
