How It Works

The pellets attract snails, slugs and slaters. After consuming the bait, the pests stop feeding and generally move away from the treated area towards their shelter.

Dead or affected pests may not be visible on the soil surface because they commonly return to protected areas before dying.

How to Use

1. Identify areas showing snail, slug or slater activity.

2. Scatter the pellets thinly and evenly over the area requiring protection.

3. Do not place the pellets in piles or heaps.

4. Apply around seedlings, vegetables, flowering plants, pots and other vulnerable plants.

5. Reapply according to the product label when pellets have been consumed, pest activity returns or heavy rain has reduced the bait.

6. Always follow the application rate and complete directions printed on the product packaging.

Applying the bait during the late afternoon or early evening may help target snails and slugs as they become active.

Safety and Storage

• Read the complete product label before opening or using

• Use only as directed on the packaging

• Keep out of reach of children

• Store securely in the original container

• Prevent pets, livestock, poultry and wildlife from accessing stored bait
