----------------------
Introducing the ultimate solution for your garden's slug problem. Designed to target the notorious Iberian slug, this 3D-printed trap offers an efficient and low-maintenance way to protect your plants.
The trap features a robust housing that securely contains a specialized slug poison, Ferramol. This bait attracts the slugs, which then consume the poison and retreat to their hiding places underground where they perish. The design ensures that you won’t have to clean out the trap, as the slugs die away from your garden. With its capacity to handle +2500 of slugs before needing a refill, this trap is both highly effective and convenient. Set it and forget it!
| * The slug trap can contain +2500 pellets of the below-mentioned specialized slug poison. A single pellet is sufficient to kill a slug, as each slug consumes roughly one pellet before dying. |

Info about Ferramol slug poison
Organic garden safe. It is based on natural active ingredients and quickly degrades when in contact with soil. Ferramol consists of blue-colored slug pellets containing iron phosphate and an attractant (wheat flour), which break down into the naturally occurring plant nutrients iron and phosphate.
The product is neither harmful to you nor your surroundings. Recent research shows that this poison is not harmful to hedgehogs and other small animals in the garden.
