ACTIVE INGREDIENTS : IRON PHOSPHATE 1.0 %
This product is a unique blend of slug and snail bait additives with
an iron phosphate active ingredient. The iron phosphate is used as
an ingredient in fertilizers and occurs in soil. The bait is
attractive to snails and slugs and lures them from their hiding
places and plants. Ingestion even in small amounts will cause them
to cease feeding. This physiological effect of the bait gives
immediate protection to the plants. After eating the bait, the slugs
and snails become less mobile and begin to die within three to six
days.
This product is effective against a wide range of slugs and snails
and will give protection to lawns, gardens, greenhouses, outdoor
ornamentals, vegetable gardens, fruits, berries, citrus and crop
plants. The bait can be scattered on the lawn or on the soil around
any vegetable plants, flowers or fruit trees or bushes to be
protected. The slugs and snails controlled by this product include:
Deroceras spp., Arion spp., Limax spp., Helix spp. and Cepaea spp.
APPLICATION RATES: 5g pellets per square meter.
PACKAGING: 1 Kg, 25 Lb/11.34Kg bags.
