SLUG AND SNAIL BAIT 1lb

Stop slimy damage overnight! Slugs and snails are notorious for chewing large, ragged holes in tender plants (especially Hostas and vegetable seedlings). This granular bait attracts them with a delicious scent, and once ingested, it causes them to stop feeding immediately, protecting your plants.

• Best For:
  • Tender Plants: Protecting Hostas, Lettuces, Basil, Delphiniums, and young transplants.
  • Moist Areas: Garden beds, borders, pots, and shaded areas where slugs and snails thrive.
• Key Actionable Steps:
  • How to Apply: Broadcast the granules lightly and evenly over the soil surface in the areas where slugs are feeding or hiding. You can also create a barrier around high-value plants.
  • Coverage: A light dusting is more effective than thick piles. Do not place in piles as it may attract non-target animals.
  • Timing: Apply in the late afternoon or early evening, as slugs and snails are most active at night.
  • Reapplication: Reapply after heavy rain or when new plant growth appears, typically every 2 to 3 weeks.
  • Pro Tip (Iron Phosphate formulas): These formulas are generally pet and wildlife-safe and naturally break down into iron and phosphate fertilizer. Check the label for the active ingredient and safety warnings.
