Wild boar, Sus scrofa is a major night active pest vertebrate that inflicts considerable damage to agricultural and horticultural crops especially in forest fringe areas. Crop field erected with a coconut coir rope immersed in botanical mixture containing castor oil + ginger extract + garlic extract (25%) recorded the least damage due to wild boars. In this treatment, the damaged crop area was only 0, 9, 15 and 54 m2 at 10, 20 and 30 days after treatment, respectively as against 148, 310, 350, 410 m2 in the control. Repellent effect of castor oil, ginger and garlic extracts was relatively low when applied individually over its combination. The repellent effect of botanical mixture was more and persistent when applied through coconut coir rope over the bund spray or sand mix application. Botanical mixture application through coir rope recorded a mean protection of 95.9 % over the control. Wild boars have excellent smelling capacity and application of botanical repellents of different origin diverted their invasion into crop fields. Botanical mixtures were found eco-friendly, easily available and cost effective in protecting the crops from wild boars upto 30 days. The cost : benefit ratio was found to be 1:5 for botanical mixture treatment.
