Advanced Slug Killer Pellets
enlarge image
These rainproof blue pellets are attractive to slugs and contain a naturally occurring active ingredient - ferric phosphate - which, when consumed, cause the slug to stop feeding. The pellets are eventually returned to the soil after being broken down by micro organisms (into iron and phosphate) and remain effective after rainfall.

• Safe to use on edible and non-edible plants
• Apply at 5g per square metre
• Maximum of 4 applications per area per season
• Children and pets need not be excluded from area treated
• 750g container
• Rain not a problem - slugs prefer moist granules
• Slugs die under the soil or in secluded location so no corpses to collect

What the experts say...

Slug it Out! This month’s warmer temperatures and spring rains means that slugs and snails will begin to reappear in your garden ready to devour any new growth on your plants. If you’re plagued by the slimy critters, then you may want to resort to slug pellets. Ensure you use an organically approved variety that won’t harm wildlife, like Growing Success Advanced Slug Killer from Harrod Horticultural. The pellets absorb water to attract slugs and once they’ve done their job, they transform into iron and phosphate to help enrich your soil. Your Home magazine, April 2009
