How To Use
Sprinkle a continuous ring of Slug Gone pellets around the base of plants, pots or seedling rows, making sure there are no gaps for slugs to slip through. The pellets will begin to swell and mat together once they come into contact with moisture from rain, watering or damp soil, forming the fibrous barrier that helps keep slugs and snails at bay. Reapply periodically, particularly after heavy rain or watering has caused the barrier to compact down, and top up as needed throughout the growing season.
Tips & Advice
For best results, apply the pellets early in the season before slug damage starts, and check vulnerable plants such as hostas, lettuces and young seedlings regularly to renew the barrier where it has thinned out. Because this product works as a physical deterrent rather than a poison, it’s a good option for gardeners who keep pets, chickens or wildlife and want to avoid chemical slug pellets, though it’s still worth combining with other good garden hygiene practices, such as clearing debris, for the most effective slug control.
