Many have spent the entire season unsuccessfully battling slugs to save their crops.

However, sometimes it seems that pests are able to overcome any traps and have become invulnerable to conventional methods of control.

But this is not true: slugs have plenty of weak points that can be safely exploited.

For example, there is one autumn method of control that gives impressive results.

What needs to be done at the dacha in the fall to solve the problem of slugs

It is worth noting right away that you should not use risky methods of pest control even at the end of the season: the soil may not recover by spring.

For example, many have heard about using a salt solution against slugs. However, you can simply make the soil less fertile. It is better to consider another option.

You will need to take lime and tobacco dust in equal parts and mix them. The exact amount of products depends on the area you need to treat.

Afterwards, we begin to sprinkle the area with the prepared mixture. You can also treat utility rooms with basements. Thanks to this method, there will be no trace of slugs left.
