Q: How to remove slugs from lawns?

We suggest using slug and snail insecticide that contains ferric phosphate. These work at killing the slugs and snails by breaking down their digestive system.

Slugs vary in size and colour, as do snails. Brown garden snails and slugs thrive in mild and moist conditions. their tongues leave holes in leaves, stems and flowers which can be more present during warm humid periods. As a result, many people look for ways to gain control. For more information about Slug and Snail Insecticide and control, please visit our problem page.
