Paracetamol is extremely toxic for cats, because they lackthe glucuronyltrans-ferase important for detoxification. Also for snakes the compound possesses high toxicity, so that it has been considered as a means to exterminate especially the brown tree snake Boiga irregularis) in Guam. [173]... 

Essential oils comprised of 10 g/L solutions of cedarwood, cinnamon, sage, juniper berry, lavender, and rosemary, each were potent snake irritants. Brown tree snakes exposed to a 2-s burst of aerosol of these oils exhibited prolonged, violent undirected locomotory behavior. In contrast, exposure to a 10 g L concentration of ginger oil aerosol caused snakes to locomote, but in a deliberate, directed manner. The 10 g/L solutions delivered as aerosols of m-anisaldehyde, tran -anethole, 1,8-cineole, cinnamaldehyde, citral, ethyl phenylacetate, eugenol, geranyl acetate, or methyl salicylate acted as potent irritants for brown tree snakes (Boiga irregularis) (Clark and Shivik, 2002).
