Copper Slug Rings - 6 x 10cm
These Copper rings repel slugs and snails in the same way as the copper bands, because of a reaction between their mucus and the copper.
When the slugs and snails come into contact with the ring they are repelled and will tend to crawl away.
Our Copper Slug rings will last for years and are safe to you, your children, pets and wildlife.
Size: Standard Copper Bands make rings 10cm in diameter (We also supply larger 17cm bands)
Fitting: Press the Slug Ring into the soil around the plant.
Make sure that:
⦁ there are no slugs or snails trapped inside. Have a good root around to be certain, because they won't be able to get out. In the first few days check that you haven’t missed any.
⦁ the rings are scrunched into the soil a little way to leave no gaps underneath for a slug to sneak through. Wet the soil first if it’s too hard.
⦁ there are no leaves overhanging the ring and touching the soil to make a bridge for slugs and snails to cross.
⦁ foliage doesn't overhang the ring from outside, allowing snails to abseil in.
