HOW IT WORKS

Skedaddle contains a unique combination of natural aromatic oils. The oils are not offensive to humans but are unpleasant to cats and dogs which have a very strong sense of smell. It confuses the animal's sense of smell and masks the residual odours of any previous excrement or urine which would normally attract them.

When used as directed, dogs and cats can be trained away from specific areas such as gardens, lawns, driveways, paths and verandahs. It is important to use Skedaddle sparingly. Repeat the procedure every 3-4 days until the animal's behaviour is modified. The aromatic oils and the granules will break down over time.

DIRECTIONS FOR USE

Residual odours of previous excrement or urine will bring a dog or cat back to the same spot for repeat visits. In addition to this, it is normal behaviour for dogs and cats to mark their territory, thereby telling other animals they are unwelcome. Therefore, it is necessary to carefully remove any excrement and hose the area thoroughly to wash away any odours before each application.

Break the container seal by pressing down where indicated. Ensure that the container is closed properly between applications to maintain the effectiveness of the product. Scatter the granules sparingly over the target area. Repeat the entire procedure every 3-4 days and after rain until the habit is broken. Reapply when needed to maintain correct animal behaviour. Some animals respond immediately while others can take a few weeks to learn new behaviour patterns.

Some factors to consider when training animals: It may take longer to discourage animals which have been visiting for a long period of time or have formed strong habits. Some animals will mark Skedaddle with excrement to reclaim territory. Young puppies may take longer to respond. Certain gardening materials such as blood and bone, composts and special soils can be a strong attraction for dogs and cats. Cats are attracted to plants such as Valerian, Catnip, Thyme, Evening Primrose, Ground Ivy and Wild Chrysanthemums but not to Rue, Geraniums, Petunias, Roses and Fuchsias.

NOT TO BE USED FOR ANY OTHER PURPOSE OR IN ANY MANNER CONTRARY TO THE DIRECTIONS ABOVE UNLESS AUTHORISED UNDER APPROPRIATE LEGALISATION.
