Shake-Away Animal Repellents Directions for Use

  • How to Use Shake-Away Granules

    -Use SPARINGLY. Heavy applications do NOT make the product work better.


    -Lightly shake a level-tablespoon sized quantity of granules every six (6) feet


    HOW TO APPLY:


    Apply Shake-Away around the specific area where the animals are doing damage. For example, if an animal is eating your flowers in one area of your gardens, that is the area you want to focus on treating.


    Lightly shake a level-tablespoon sized quantity of granules every six (6) feet.directly on or near the areas/plants that need to be protected.


    For areas that are heavily damaged, may want to apply closer together but in the same sized application.


    A shake the size of a level-tablespoon will normally provide protection up to a 6' radius (12' diameter)


    SPECIFIC APPLICATION DIRECTIONS


    Gardens-Flowerbeds: Shake level-tablespoon sized quantity at least every 6 feet on or around plants, bulbs, bushes, flowers and trees in your garden or flowerbed. Use sparingly.


    Burrowing Animals: Shake level-tablespoon sized quantity into every hole you find in your yard, garden, flowerbeds, along foundations, etc.


    Inside and Under Buildings: Place a tablespoon sized application on a paper plate or directly on the ground. Make one application at least every 10x10 area (100 sq. ft.) where small critters are frequenting.


    Shake-Away will last longer in enclosed spaces. Replace every two to start, four weeks for maintenance or as needed. Be sure to "plug" the areas through which the critters are entering after they leave.

  • How Do Shake-Away Animal Repellents Work?

    Shake-Away Fox/Coyote Urine Granules:


    These granules use the strongest force in nature to repel your pest... the animal's inborn instinctive fear of predators. The scent of a predator is picked up by the animals keen sense of smell, communicating danger lurking nearby. Your pest instincts will persuade them to seek other, lower risk locations.


    Shake-Away Rodent Repellent Granules:


    These granules are a proprietary blend of organic oils that are scientifically formulated to aggravate the senses of all rodents. The vapors discharged by the granules (though pleasant to humans), are an irritant that disorients a rodent's sensitive nervous systems.


    Using any repellent, you are persuading animals to find new shelter or an alternate food source This is a significant change in habit and behavior. Be sure to follow directions closely and allow up to 2-3 weeks to see results.

  • Are Shake-Away Animal Repellents Safe?

    Shake-Away's patented formula will not harm or burn your plants, bushes or trees.


    Shake-Away is weather resistant and remains effective after light to moderate rainfall, but may need to be reapplied after heavy rain.


    Shake-Away granules are 100% natural, non-toxic and safe for use around children, pets, plants and the environment.

  • How Often Should I Apply Shake-Away Granules

    Apply Shake-Away granules twice a week for the first two weeks, then twice a month for maintenance

  • How Long Will Shake-Away Last?

    Shake-Away's instructions say to apply the product twice in the first two weeks,and then once every two weeks after that. Applied directly to the ground the product will last 2-3 weeks. In order to break animal habits, the product must be applied more frequently in the beginning to send the message that the predator is marking his territory often.


  • What Do the Granules Smell Like?

    Predator urine has a strong sulphur like smell. However when spread on the ground, it is normally not detectable by humans.


    When used outdoors, humans can NOT smell the product.


    If you stick you nose in the container, you definitely can smell the odor. Keep in mind that animals have a VERY sensitive sense of smell. Their olfactory glands are many times more sensitive than humans are. Scent and smell are one of their primary forms of communication. When used indoors in an area not normally "lived in" like an attic, deck, basement etc., you will not be able to smell the product in the rest of your home. However, in small closed-in places you will smell a sulfurous odor.
