A non-toxic insect repellent designed to make insects slip on almost any surface has been unveiled by scientists at Cambridge University. Cambridge University has released a video showing the coating at work.
The substance creates a coating that causes the creatures to behave like "someone with wet feet in the shower", a university spokesman said.
It is hoped the coating could restrict the movement of pests such as termites, cockroaches, ants and locusts.
