Slugs

Q. I have trouble with slugs on my plants and they get on the side of my house. I just hate them. What can I do?

A. Use Sluggo a slug bait unique blend of an iron phosphate active ingredient originating from soil with slug and snail bait additives. It is also used as an ingredient in fertilizers. The bait which is not ingested by snails and slugs will degrade and become a part of the soil. Sluggo is attractive to slugs and snails luring them from their hiding places and plants. Ingestion even in small amounts will cause them to cease feeding. This physiological effect of the bait gives immediate protection to the plants even though the slugs may remain in the area. After eating the bait the slugs and snails cease feeding become less mobile and begin to die within three to six days. Dead slugs and snails may not be visible as they often crawl away to secluded places to die. Plant protection will be observed in the decrease in plant damage. This product is effective against a wide variety of slugs and snails and will give protection to home lawns gardens greenhouses outdoor ornamentals vegetable gardens fruits berries citrus crop and seed plants. The bait can be scattered on the lawn or non the soil around any vegetable or seed crops flowers or fruit trees to be protected.
