Be rid of slugs and snails...quick and easy

There are many ways in which you can be rid of these pests, the most common is hand picking them which is a very effective method however you can’t be on watch of your garden all the time so here are a few more methods you can use. Copper strips are a good way of getting them away. If you place copper strips along your raised beds and anywhere else you may need. slugs and snails wont cross them as it gives them an electric shock when they touch the copper. Iron phosphate is a good thing to use as well because once ingested it will kill the slugs and snails. Iron phosphate is a compound that combines phosphorous and oxygen with iron. It can kill slugs and snails when eaten. The toxicity of iron compounds like this depends on the amount of available iron. Iron is an essential mineral for plants and animals. It can be found in the environment, foods, and water.
