Slug Control

Slug Control

There's nothing worse than finding the shoots of tender new plants decimated by hungry slugs. These slimy scavengers can really ruin any chance you have of growing anything in the garden.

We sell lots of different slug control methods from wool pellets and adhesive copper tape, to slug and snail traps that you fill with beer and empty daily. We always encourage the natural predation of slugs or use of an environmentally friendly product like the ones mentioned above. If however you must use metaldehyde, then please ensure that the pellets are used sparingly and out of reach of young children, pets and other wildlife.
