Solabiol Slug Barrier

Be the first to leave a review
Organic farming
Granules to place around plants, creating a physical barrier that will protect vegetable plants (lettuces, strawberries...) or ornamental plants (hostas, delphiniums...) from slug and snail attacks, without killing them and without harming the environment. They should be applied as soon as the first slugs and snails appear, in spring. This barrier poses no risk to children or pets. Packaged in a 1.5 kg box.

Solabiol Slug Barrier is an effective product for preventing and combating slug and snail attacks, while respecting the environment. Composed of a specific clay, without added chemicals, it is harmless to pets and children. The granules that make it up effectively absorb water, creating a very dry, granular-textured space that deters slugs and snails and hinders their progress. Apply this product in a circle at the base of susceptible plants in spring, as soon as the first snails and slugs appear. Packaged in a 1.5 kg box.

 

Slug barrier granules can be used in the vegetable garden, on the balcony, and in the ornamental garden, in spring, as soon as temperatures allow slugs and snails to become active. The vegetable garden hosts many crops that these small animals love: lettuces, cabbages, young courgette plants and other cucurbits, strawberries, chicories, radishes... In the ornamental garden, the fleshy leaves of hostas whet their appetite, as well as those of delphiniums, lilies, and dahlias, for example. Place a barrier 2-3 cm in diameter around the plants to be protected. It is important to check that no slug is inside the area protected by the Slug Barrier. Slugs tend to hide in small crevices or hiding places that retain moisture (pieces of wood, under pots...).

- Use in pots/planters/balcony boxes: before applying the granules, ensure there are no slugs or snails in the pot. Create a thin barrier of granules (2-3 cm) around the plantings.

- Use in open ground: form a barrier of granules 2-3 cm wide and 1 cm thick all around your crops to protect them from attacks. Renew the application in case of rain, by reinforcing the existing layer. At the end of the treatment, or when all pests have been repelled, bury the granules to improve the structure and porosity of the soil.
