I’m trying to answer the OP’s question, but I’m having trouble finding a decent description or list of ingredients. Anybody? The “directions for use” scream quack – it’s topical and very specific about where to put it–but there’s not enough information on the loud (both meanings) web site to be sure. ---

I would also be interested to know exactly what’s in this stuff, just to satisfy my own curiosity. ---
