Many methods of slug control stop working as well as we would like over time.

Therefore, it is worth periodically changing your “war tactics” against these dangerous pests.

What methods are worth considering?

Shell

This product will be of complete benefit to the area and pose a direct threat to slugs. You just need to break the larger shells and sprinkle the area near the plantings.

This will help protect cabbage and other plants from slugs.

This method seems more original, but it has the same principle of action as the first option. Sharp shells will not allow slugs to get into the garden bed.

"Hellish mixture"

You can sprinkle the area around the plantings with a special mixture that is destructive to slugs. It consists of half a liter of ash, a spoon of pepper, the same amount of mustard powder and salt.

This composition will be safe for planting, but it should be updated periodically.
