Then choose anti-snail copper tape (4m) and avoid the use of chemicals. How it works When the snail tries to cross the copper tape, a small electrical charge is emitted by the copper. The snail is startled and will no longer come near the leaves of your plant. How to use Check how long your loop should be to be able to stick the tape completely around your plant pot or planter. If you want to protect your plants from both slugs and snails, you need to cut V-grooves around the bottom of the tape. If you only want to protect your plants from slugs, you do not need to cut V-grooves in the tape.
