How to Apply:
Scatter the Espoma Organic® Slug and Snail Bait granules on the soil around or near the plants to be protected. Apply the bait during the evening, as slugs and snails travel and feed mostly by night or early morning. Treat all areas of infestation, especially around the perimeter of garden pots because these pests travel into plant areas from daytime refuges. Apply bait evenly at the rate of ½ to 1 pound per 1000 square feet, or for smaller areas .15 ounce or 1 level teaspoon per square yard. Reapply as the bait is consumed or at least every two weeks. Apply at a higher rate if the infestation is severe, if the areas is highly watered, or after long periods of rain. Do not place in piles. If the ground is dry, wet it before applying the bate. The product works best when soil is moist but with little or no standing water.
