Use the bait to protect berries
from slugs and snails, including
(but not limited to): strawberries,
blackberries,
blueberries,
boysenberries, loganberries, raspberries. Spread
the bait around the perimeter of the plot to intercept
slugs and snails migrating toward the berries. Use
a rate of 0.5 - 1 lb. per 1,000 square feet, or for
smaller areas, 0.15 oz., or 1 level teaspoon, per
square yard, and scatter by hand or with granular
spreaders. If slugs and snails are already in the
plots, then carefully spread bait between the furrows
near the base of the plants. For small plots, treat
around the base of the plants to be protected. Do
not spread over the entire area but apply selectively.
Where slugs or snails are a
problem in greenhouses, scatter
the bait in the plant pots of plants
being damaged or around pots on greenhouse
benches. Apply ½ teaspoon per 9 inch pot.
Use the bait on lawns as a buffer
zone around gardens. When
slugs or snails are detected,
scatter the bait at a rate of 0.15
oz., or 1 level teaspoon, per
square yard. Scatter by hand or
with a granular spreader where the slugs or snails
are observed.
