Slug and Snail Shocka Mats
£6.45
GPC-754
Write the first review!
This copper impregnated ground-cover matting allows you to protect larger areas and has been well proven to repel slugs and snails preventing them getting into uninfested areas.
• If you’re looking for immediate cost effective and long term control against slugs and snails then this is a highly effective and novel option.
• Available in two size options:
• Standard Roll measures 1.5m x 30cm
• Large Roll measures 5m x 90cm
"Conclusion: Once you've got past the fiddle of laying and planting through this material, it performed best out of all our bought-in trials, and was the only one to provide perfect protection". 9/10
Grow Your Own magazine, August 2008
"This fabric, called Tex-R, has been impregnated on one side with copper, which the makers say slugs and snails hate and either won't attempt to cross or just sit on it. You can snip it to size to form a barrier under pots and around individual plants, or cut slits to plant in a row. I liked the fact that this barrier is reusable and is not affected by weather. As well as deterring slugs, it retains moisture, has insulating properties and keeps weeds at bay - so it has a lot going for it and is great value. Also available in rolls up to 16ft x 2ft 9in (5m x 90cm) or as pot mats. Remember if it's plants in pots you want to protect, you have to ensure your pots are completely slug-free first, removing any eggs from beneath the surface of the compost."
Star Score: 9/10 - 4* for features and 5* for value.
