## Description

Great prices on your favourite Gardening brands, and free delivery on eligible orders.

Review: It's made from natural Wool and doesn't use any chemicals - A great product, which is easy to apply. It is at a high price point, however it lasts and is ideal for those using the no-dig method, as once the pellets are wet they spread to form a wool layer on the top of the soil which discourages the snails and slugs. We had been over run by snails in our small raised beds and have used this product over the last 3 years to help combat it, alongside visual checks and removal of the little offenders, it has helped greatly reduce damage caused by slugs and snails. It isn't an 'instant fix' and you need to be aware that snails will climb and reach over for plants too from walls etc; they will do what they can to avoid the wool layer too. If you plan your planting and use a good deep band of the pellets it works very well. Yes, the product does have an initial odour, but this is short lived - wool does smell and this is to be expected. I recommend this product, as it's been tried an tested here and works really well and as an added bonus it also helps keep the moisture in too, so reduces the amount of watering needed for the plants as well.
Review: Seems to keep slugs away -- BUT .... - Does appear to have kept slugs off my hostas, but OH boy does it stink, keeps humans away as well for a while, but the smell has abated after a week or two. Apart from the smell a good natural solution to slugs.

Does appear to have kept slugs off my hostas, but OH boy does it stink, keeps humans away as well for a while, but the smell has abated after a week or two. Apart from the smell a good natural solution to slugs.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Use this if you are happy the slugs are gone and don't mind the earthy smell.
*by S***S on 10 December 2025*

I bought these to avoid using chemical pellets because I have a dog, and I'm really impressed. I put a thick layer around my hostas and dahlias, and for the first time in years, the leaves aren't shredded! They do have a bit of a "farmyard" sheep smell when you first water them in, but it fades after a few days. It also acts as a nice mulch to keep moisture in the soil. Highly recommend it if you want a pet-safe solution.
