How to Use

For the scatter method, scatter the blue pellets evenly around the base of plants, flowers, and other vulnerable areas in your garden to provide thorough coverage.

Regarding timing, it is best to apply the pellets in the evening or early morning, especially in damp conditions when slugs and snails are most active. For repeat application, reapply the pellets every one to two weeks, or after seven days if excessive rain occurs, to ensure ongoing protection for your plants.
