How This Fits Into a Typical Job

This slug and snail bait forms part of an integrated pest management approach in the garden. It is typically applied during planting or when pest activity is observed, creating a protective barrier around vulnerable plants.

The pellets are scattered around the base of plants or along planting rows, where they remain active for extended periods, requiring occasional replenishment after heavy rainfall or as part of routine garden maintenance.

How to Use

1. Application Area:
   • Sprinkle evenly on bare soil around plants and seedlings.
2. Timing:
   • Apply during dry conditions for optimal results.
3. Reapplication:
   • Reapply after heavy rainfall to maintain effectiveness.
4. Coverage:
   • Space pellets adequately to cover the entire area.
5. Harvesting:
   • Safe to use around edible crops until the day of harvest.

For added protection around young seedlings and pots, apply a protective barrier gel in problem spots to keep slugs and snails away. Protective barrier gel works well in tight areas where pellets are hard to place.
