STOP SLUG

Description

Stop Slug Insecticide is a ready-to-use granular formulation developed for the effective control of slugs and snails in home gardens, greenhouses, vegetable patches, vineyards, orchards, and berry or vegetable crops. These pests feed on the green tissues of plants and are often found in moist environments such as cellars, basements, and utility buildings.

Application Guidelines:

Distribute the granules directly in areas where slugs and snails are commonly found or travel — including indoor spaces, gazebos, flower beds, and garden paths. In gardens or vegetable fields, optimal results are achieved when the product is applied between crop rows, forming a protective barrier.

Recommended dosage: 3-5 g per 1 plant
Avoid scattering the product on plant foliage. Depending on pest pressure and weather conditions, repeat applications may be necessary to maintain ongoing protection. For best results, apply at the earliest signs of infestation.

Key Benefits:

• Eliminates all common species of slugs and snails

• Pre-formulated bait requires no mixing or dilution

• Convenient granule format: non-sticky, non-crystallizing during storage

• Causes pest death within 48 hours of ingestion or contact

• Enhanced with attractants for improved bait uptake

• Moisture-resistant granules remain effective even after rain

• Safe for most cultivated plants and non-target insects, including pollinators like bees

• Simple application — no special equipment or training required

• Provides lasting protection by creating a durable pest-repelling barrier

Mode of Action:

Stop Slug contains metaldehyde, a molluscicidal active ingredient with both contact and ingestion action. Upon consumption, metaldehyde damages the mucosal tissues of the digestive system in slugs and snails, leading to rapid dehydration and death. The granules are enhanced with feeding stimulants and pheromones that attract pests by scent, encouraging fast bait consumption. Following ingestion, pests begin to overproduce mucus, lose mobility, and ultimately desiccate within 48 hours.
