Advantages: Cheap & effective. easy to apply. Plus Animal Repellent.

Disadvantages: None to my knowledge.

Comes available in 1Kg containers available in most garden centres or online.

I have my own allotment and I hate slugs especially when they eat my potatoes.

This year I wanted to eliminate slugs by using some slug pellets. Before they eat my vegetables.

Before I started planting my potatoes this year I got myself some slug pellets. These particular ones caught my attention as they contained some kind of animal repellent.

I won't know if they have been effective on my potatoes until later on this year.

But I sprinkled these around my cabbages, cauliflowers, beetroot, broccoli, and other plants and they have all been free from slugs. Many slugs have appeared on the surface dead.

But me and others usually have problems with pigeons destroying young plants. Since I have been using these
slug pellets I have not had any problems with pigeons. Maby the animal repellent meant to stop them eating the pellets also protects your plants from being attacked by pigeons as well.

Update 28 may 2006: Well it has bin a few weeks now and still no sign of slug damage to my vegetables or pigeons. I have just finished my second container will need to get more soon.

But now I have encountered a new pest a little mole will need to find some kind of humane mole deterrent. Not done much damage as of yet. o and i got a wasp nest in my shed I need to get rid of.

Summary: I am on my second container now with a slug-free and pigeon free allotment.
