20210329914 · 2021-10-28 · ·

Pest-repellent pallet slip sheets for preventing or reducing rodent or pest damage to goods placed on pallets or other locations. The pest-repellent pallet slip sheets generally include slip sheets designed for placement on the top portion of a pallet, such that the slip sheet covers substantially the entire pallet. The slip sheets may be treated with repellent substance all over, randomly, or in a pattern such that a specific portion, or all, of the slip sheet is treated with the pest-repellent substance. The pattern may be produced, for example, by feeding slip sheet material past an application device at a given rate of speed, and then intermittently interrupting the application of the pest-repellent substance if an intermittent pattern is desired. A colored dye may be added to the pest-repellent substance to create a visible indication of a pattern or treated area.
