Use the bait to protect berries

from slugs and snails, including

(but not limited to): strawberries,

blackberries,

blueberries,

boysenberries, loganberries, raspberries. Spread

the bait around the perimeter of the plot to intercept

slugs and snails migrating toward the berries. Use

a rate of 0.5 - 1 lb. per 1,000 square feet, or for

smaller areas, 0.15 oz., or 1 level teaspoon, per

square yard, and scatter by hand or with granular

spreaders. If slugs and snails are already in the

plots, then carefully spread bait between the furrows

near the base of the plants. For small plots, treat

around the base of the plants to be protected. Do

not spread over the entire area but apply selectively.

Where slugs or snails are a

problem in greenhouses, scatter

the bait in the plant pots of plants

being damaged or around pots on greenhouse

benches. Apply ½ teaspoon per 9 inch pot.

Use the bait on lawns as a buffer

zone around gardens. When

slugs or snails are detected,

scatter the bait at a rate of 0.15

oz., or 1 level teaspoon, per

square yard. Scatter by hand or

with a granular spreader where the slugs or snails

are observed.
