Serrated to provide extra protection against snails, Copper Slug Tape is a popular alternative to more chemical based solutions. Copper Slug Tape: Adhesive copper tape barrier Emits a tiny electrical charge when touched Excellent for use on pots and planters. It is the tiny electromagnetic charge a slug or snail feels when it tries to cross Copper Slug Tape which prevents them reaching the plants and crops. A tiny electrical charge is created naturally from within the copper causing them to turn away. Suitable for organic gardening, Slug Copper Tape comes in a four metre pack which will protect up to 12, five inch pots. To use, remove the protective paper and apply direct to a dry, clean surface. Stick the tape in a complete circle around the pot or bed you want to protect.
