It is a yellow oil like substance made up of thiols and thioacetates.

not to be pedantic - I don't know if it is a flammable mixture or not - some people appear to be saying yes, and others appear to be saying no.

I still stick to my original analysis. holding a match up to an animal that intends to spray a potentially flammable substance at my face does not appear to be the best possible course of action.

Agreed. Not so bright an idea.

Though, while I had never heard of it being flammable before, I did easily find evidence that it was flammable. Including a scientist and animal control who say it is, as well as researching the "ingredients" to find that they are flammable as well.
