Results Guaranteed with Growing Success

Our Growing Success Organic Slug Stop Barrier Pellets are an effective slug and snail barrier suitable for all crops and plants and can be used all round the garden. Our pellets not only protect the treated plant, but also the neighbouring ones because slugs and snails stop feeding. The wool pellets allow slugs and snails to still feed on the neighbouring plants causing damage to your garden.

The pellets go further; protecting more plants and crops in the garden.
