Safer 2# Critter Ridder 6/CS

Dual-Action Repellent: Scent and Taste

Critter Ridder targets two of an animal’s most potent senses—smell and taste. The repellent contains natural active ingredients like Oil of Black Pepper, Piperine, and Capsaicin, which work together to create an unpleasant experience for animals in two stages:

1. Overwhelming the sense of smell – Upon encountering the treated area, animals are repelled by the robust and irritating scent that warns them to stay away.
2. Assaulting the sense of taste—If an animal ventures further, the repellent delivers a sharp, unpleasant taste, effectively teaching it to avoid the area in the future.

This combination of scent and taste provides long-lasting deterrence, effectively training animals to steer clear of treated areas without causing any harm.

Effective Against a Wide Range of Animals

One of the critical strengths of Critter Ridder is its ability to repel a broad spectrum of animals. Critter Ridder offers reliable protection whether you’re dealing with common garden pests or stray pets. It is highly effective against:

• Cats and dogs – Keeps pets from damaging your garden or flowerbeds.
• Squirrels and chipmunks – Prevents them from digging up plants and bulbs.
• Raccoons, skunks, and groundhogs—This deters these larger wildlife species from causing damage or rummaging through your yard.
• Deer and rabbits – Protects shrubs, trees, and garden areas from hungry herbivores.
• Moles and voles – Keeps these burrowing pests from creating unsightly holes and tunnels in your lawn.

With Critter Ridder, you can protect your outdoor spaces from animal nuisances, ensuring that your garden and lawn remain intact and beautiful.

Active Ingredients and Natural Formulation

Critter Ridder’s effectiveness comes from its blend of natural ingredients that animals find repulsive. The active ingredients include:

• Oil of Black Pepper – A potent scent deterrent that keeps animals away from treated areas.
• Piperine – Enhances the effectiveness of the black pepper by intensifying its irritation to animals.
• Capsaicin – A compound found in chili peppers that delivers a hot, unpleasant taste when animals come into contact with it, teaching them to avoid the area in the future.

This natural, non-toxic formulation makes it safe for use in organic gardens and around children and pets when used as directed.
