    Description

    Vitax Slug Rid Slug & Snail Pellets 

    A ready-to-use, ferric phosphate-based slug and snail bait designed for fast, effective, and eco-certified control in both ornamental and edible gardens.

    Key Features

    • Natural active ingredient: Ferric phosphate, approved for organic gardening—safe around pets and wildlife 
    • Fast-acting effect: Once eaten, slugs and snails stop feeding immediately, which halts plant damage quickly 
    • Rain-resistant and swelling: Pellets absorb moisture, become more attractive to pests, and stay effective longer—even in damp conditions 
    • No unsightly residue: Slugs retreat underground after feeding; no dead bodies or slime trails are left behind 
    • Ready to use: No mixing—just scatter pellets around vulnerable plants 

    Ideal For

    • Edibles and ornamentals: Safe for use around vegetables, herbs, fruit, bedding, and border plants 
    • Broad garden use: Equally effective in raised beds, pots, greenhouses, and traditional garden borders 
    • Organic and wildlife-friendly gardens: Ideal for gardeners avoiding harsh chemicals.

    How to Use

    1. Scatter pellets (approximately 5 g/m²) around the base of plants in moist soil 
    2. Apply during late evening or early morning when slugs are most active 
    3. The pellets swell on contact with moisture, attracting slugs and snails 
    4. Reapply every two weeks or after heavy rain to maintain protection 

    When & Where to Use

    • Best timing: Early evening or morning in moist, mild conditions—peak slug activity periods 
    • Seasonality: Suitable for use throughout the growing season whenever slugs or snails are active.
    • Locations: Use in vegetable plots, flower beds, allotments, containers, or greenhouses.

    Why Choose Vitax Slug Rid

    • Organic-approved control: Uses ferric phosphate, not metaldehyde—safer for wildlife, pets, and the environment 
    • Fast and clean: Slugs cease feeding immediately and disappear, leaving no mess 
    • Long-lasting: Swelling action and rain resistance make it effective for up to two weeks per application.
    • Widely trusted: From Vitax, a reputable UK brand for home and garden care
