Suitable For a Garden Revolution

Not Suitable For Exercise Caution

How to Use Defender Snail and Slug Pellets

Active Ingredient Power: Metaldehyde Magic

• Poisonous Formula: The active ingredient, metaldehyde, is a potent poison for snails, slugs, and other gastropods.
• Contact or Ingestion: It works on contact or when ingested by the pests.
• Soluble but Safe: While soluble, it doesn’t get absorbed by plants or enter the food chain.

Application Wisdom: Scattering with Purpose

• Light Sprinkling: Sprinkle pellets lightly around plants to form a protective barrier.
• Strategic Placement: Avoid placing them too close to plants; the goal is to attract pests away from your seedlings.
• Regular Application: Apply every few days as pellets degrade with weather exposure.
