A selection ofthe best slug control methods we sell.
Britain has few serious pests compared with the tropics where all vegetation in a whole region can be wiped out by insects such as locusts. However we do have one pest that can, under certain circumstances, destroy most of our crops. No gardener needs two guesses as to what this is; it has to be the slug.
Slugs and snails have an amazing ability to wreak havoc on the garden. But with a little knowledge and the right tools you can protect your plants.
The short answer to the problem of slugs and snails is integrated control. There are many weapons in the war on slugs; you can choose to use several of these methods for a more complete control, or just one or two. Whatever you decide, choose wisely and use all products with care and respect to limit their impact on the environment of your garden and any adjoining land.
