Skunk spray can now be neutralized

Skunk spray is the nasal equivalent to stepping on a hornets nest or staring at the sun. Skunk spray contains a mixture of sulfur-containing chemicals called thiols or mercaptans, but the Tolypocladium fungus has a compound in it called pericosine that neutralize the stink – that can linger for months. The pericosine reacts with skunk spray’s thiol compounds, forming residues that aren’t belligerent to the nose and can washed away. The pericosine can be used on skin and even around the eyes as it doesn’t cause irritation. Additional ingredients are added to the pericosine to neutralize than quicker.
