Definitions

  • the field relates to deterrence of birds from ingesting lethal doses of pesticide- treated substance while not preventing birds from ingesting non-lethal doses of the same pesticide-treated substances.
  • Pesticides and fungicides have been applied to a variety of substances, including, for example, crop, flower, and vegetable seeds, for protection from insects and plant disease for a long time.
  • the active ingredients used in pesticides and fungicides have been regulated by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) in the United States since the inception of the agency. Over the decades, the EPA has judged many of these active ingredients to be harmful to the environment or wildlife and, as a consequence, has removed the more harmful chemicals from the inventory in favor of more benign substances. This trend continues, and today the current list of registered pesticides still has residual negative effect.
  • EPA Environmental Protection Agency
  • Pesticides can be lethal to birds in at least two ways.
  • the first is direct lethal outcomes from eating a high enough quantity of pesticide-treated substances such as plant seeds.
  • pesticide-treated substances such as plant seeds.
  • one imidacloprid-treated corn seed, three to four treated cereal seeds, or four to five treated canola seeds can be lethal to the average bird.
  • Mineau and Palmer The Impact of the National’s Most Widely Used Insecticides on Birds, American Bird conserveancy, March 2013.
  • the second way a pesticide can be lethal to a bird is through a sublethal effect that can leave a bird disoriented or unable to avoid predators. This effect is a form of toxicosis, and the bird can act inebriated and ultimately die by not being able to protect itself. For example, it has been shown that approximately 72 million birds are killed directly by pesticides each year in the U.S., but sublethal effects are ten times more prevalent. Mineau and Palmer, supra.

  • the term“effective amount” is an amount of bird repellent plus an amount of visual cue agent on plant seeds, in some embodiments pesticide-treated plant seeds, in a location which results in a significant deterrence of a bird from coated plant seeds in said location in comparison to uncoated control plant seeds in said location (i.e., plant seeds without bird repellent and visual cue agent).

  • Pesticide-treated substances can also, in some embodiments, be coated by immersion in the treating solution, noting that this method involves intensive drying. So long as the coating is sufficient to provide an effective amount of the composition comprising a bird repellent and a visual cue agent, further coating thickness is not needed.

Abstract

La présente invention concerne des compositions de dissuasion pour oiseaux et leurs procédés d'utilisation pour dissuader un oiseau d'ingérer des doses létales d'une substance traitée par un pesticide, telle qu'une graine de plante traitée par un pesticide. Les compositions de dissuasion pour oiseaux comprennent un répulsif pour oiseaux et/ou un agent de repère visuel. La substance traitée par un pesticide qui a été traitée avec les compositions de dissuasion pour oiseaux empêche l'oiseau d'ingérer des doses létales de la substance traitée par un pesticide, tout en ne dissuadant pas les oiseaux d'ingérer des doses non létales desdites substances traitées par un pesticide.
