How do garden centres deter slugs and snails?

My family have a nursery and we use slug pellets that are environmentally friendly, and 100% safe for wildlife and pets (except slugs and snails). Depending where you live, I'd contact local nurseries and look for this type - not the typical poisonous slug pellets, which do cause harm. One company called Growing Success makes one brand.

We also use nematodes, that are microscopic living creatures which prey on slugs and lead to their death. They're naturally around us, but by adding higher population levels you manage to control the slug population. You buy a powder, containing these creatures, mix with water and water it around the garden, they then go away and attack the slugs.

Eg - http://www.harrodhorticultural.com/Harro… Finally, if you have any pots, you can buy a thin copper tape that will adhere to your pots, and this prevents slugs and ... more.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
