11.08.2024 10:00
Many people realize that the fight against slugs never ends: it starts all over again every year.
Therefore, it is worth remembering all the methods that give good efficiency.
They can always be combined to improve performance.
What methods will help to cope with the problem of slugs
Ash
Slugs don't like ash at all, so it can become your "secret weapon" in the fight against pests. It is worth defining the perimeter of the beds that are given over to plants that attract slugs.
We lay out a layer of ash and periodically renew it.
Mulch
It should be used everywhere to create uncomfortable conditions for slugs. For this purpose, leaves, sawdust or pine needles should be chosen as mulch.
Each of these options is effective.
Ammonia
This method is the most radical, but it will bring an incredible effect. Take one part ammonia to two parts water and start spraying the slugs that you encounter on your property.
