Vitax Slug Gone Wool Pellets - 3.5L
Natural, organic wool pellets
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.
Slug Gone:
•Biodegradable, contains naturally occurring slow release nutrients to help feed plants
•Its minute fibres form a mat which is an irritant to slugs and absorbs moisture from the slug’s foot
•Improves water retention.
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 and wet.
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.
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.
Soil Association approved, Slug Gone has achieved the coveted British Wool logo as well as being part of the Campaign for Wool.
Safe to use around children and pets, Slug Gone can also be used to protect against cabbage root fly.
