Claims
- 1. A process for reducing damage to agriculturally important products by bird or mammal pests, by including an aversion response to said products in said pests, which comprises contacting said pests while in their natural habitat with a bird or mammal aversion amount of at least one trialkylphenyl alkylcarbamate, wherein said alkyls have from 1-4 carbon atoms which has been applied to said products.
- 2. A process in accordance with claim 1 wherein said contacting is accomplished via ingestion of said trialkylphenyl alkylcarbamate by said pests.
- 3. A process in accordance with claim 1 wherein said contacting is accomplished via inhalation of said trialkylphenyl alkylcarbamate by said pests.
- 4. A process in accordance with claim 1 wherein said contacting is accomplished as a result of the treatment of said agriculturally important product with trialkylphenyl alkylcarbamate.
- 5. A process in accordance with claim 1 wherein said trialkylphenyl alkylcarbamate is a trimethylphenyl methylcarbamate.
- 6. A process for inducing an aversion-response by animal pests to toxic pesticide granules which comprises, prior to treating soil with said toxic granules, applying to said soil placebo granules containing an aversion-effective amount of at least one trialkyl-phenyl alkylcarbamate, wherein said alkyls have from 1 to 4 carbons.
