Why makahiya leaves can be a repellant?

Makahiya leaves, from the Mimosa pudica plant, contain compounds that can act as natural repellents due to their ability to cause irritation upon contact. When touched, the leaves fold and release a mild defense mechanism, which can deter herbivores and insects. Additionally, some studies suggest that the plant's chemicals may be distasteful or harmful to certain pests, further enhancing its role as a natural repellant. This makes makahiya leaves a potential option for organic pest management.
