Vitax Slug Gone 3.5L

Product Information

Slug Gone is the natural, organic way to keep slugs and snails away from plants. Popular amongst environmentally-conscious and organic gardeners, Slug Gone is 100% natural and derived from British wool.

Containing naturally occurring nutrients, Slug Gone consists of a biodegradable protein fibre which releases nitrogen, potassium, sulphur and other trace elements essential for plant growth. To deter slugs and other gastropods, simply lay the pellets around the stems of plants. For best results, add Slug Gone in a 10cm radius around the plant, then add water to cause the fibres to bond.Safe to use around children and pets, Slug Gone can also be used to protect against cabbage root fly. Slug Gone Wool Pellets are a natural, organic way to keep slugs and snails away from plants. These pellets form a highly effective textured barrier. Suitable for organic gardens, Slug Gone pellets are produced from wool and are ideal for using around fruit, flowers and vegetables, and are perfect for use in tubs and baskets.

For best results, apply Slug Gone as a 10cm band around the plant and ensure there are no gaps. To prevent slugs reaching the plants ensure no leaves or stems overhang the pot’s perimeter, stand next to containers which do not have Slug Gone protection, or place next to walls where slugs can drop onto the plant. The swollen wool pellets form a felt which makes it difficult for slugs to travel across. The wool pellet mat also contains abrasive particles which irritate the slug’s foot, physically deterring the slug and creating a 100% natural barrier.Water the pellets well and after a short period of time the pellets will bind together forming an insulation mat that will not blow or wash away.
