Snailscan be a nuisance in any garden, and humid weather contributes to their abundance. They like the leaves of many plants, leaving slime marks and gouged holes on them. With a large number of snail infestations in the garden, they can even cause stagnation, eating almost the entire plant leaves. Fortunately, we have a new, natural and safe for the environment, and at the same time a very effective way toget rid of snails from the garden
Snails are uninvited guests in our gardens. They feed on plants, gnawing leaves
Ways toget rid of snails from the gardenthere is no shortage of them, and yet the problem with these pests returns like a boomerang every year. The last example is a comment on our Facebook profile, where Ania wrote: something for snails in strawberries ?? there are plenty of them after the rains. "
Exactly - in strawberries, which we will eat afterwards. On plots and in home gardens, we should primarily usenatural and harmless methodsfor the environment and ourselves. Therefore, we should avoid chemical preparations and snail poisoning. On the other hand, use traps to catch snails, create natural barriers that are difficult for snails to cross (e.g. border of a bed with gravel made of sharp-edged pebbles), avoid creating hiding places and places favorable for snails to live (all damp and shady nooks, e.g.under stones or old boards where snails can hide).
Snails are especially numerous in periods of wet weather, after rainfall
However, you should be aware that all these natural and home methods for snails in the garden are unfortunatelynot very effectiveThey allow to reduce the number of snails in the garden, but these pests can still cause considerable losses in plants. A few days ago (I do not remember whether on our forum or on Facebook) I found a comment from one of our readers, who was more or less like this:
So what if every day I take a dozen to several dozen snails out of the trap, since still at least twice as much is wandering around the garden all the time? .So the traps successfully catch these pests, but there are so many snails that they still do a lot of damage! "
Personally, I also do not fully support the advice to avoid creating damp and shady places in the garden that may be naturalhiding places for snails Why? On the other hand, the same or similar hiding places can be an oasis for many small creatures seeking shelter in our garden, or for beneficial insects. Besides, let&39;s be realistic - it is often impossible to avoid places where snails will find a perfect shelter and a base for attacks on our flower beds. "
Fortunately (and this year, after a damp spring and the last numerous rainfalls, almost as per order), a new, very convenient to use agent has appeared on saleanti snail agentBefore I introduce it, I would like to point out that it belongs to preparations based onnatural ingredients , it is fullysafe for people, pets and plantsand is perfect for use in organic farming.

Ferramol GR is a snails remedy in the form of granulesu. The active substance of this agent is the natural substance iron phosphate III, which is found in the soil.Thanks to this, the preparation is safe for the environment and harmful only to snails. The application of the agent is very easy - just sprinkle the granules on the ground between the plants.

After eating the granules, the snails hide in their hiding places and die there, so no dead snails can be seen in the beds.
