Next, you need to dissolve a large spoon of salt in a bucket of water and treat the areas where you most often observed pests.

Afterwards, wait 14 days and use the salt solution again to treat the area. It is better not to use such treatment at other times, as it can potentially have a negative impact on crop yields.

Also, do not forget about prevention methods. For example, the perimeter of the area should be laid out with a layer of river sand, which is mixed with chicken eggshells and mustard powder.

This will be a very useful solution if your neighbors have slugs.
