eventually decompose
leaving no harmful residue. Use regularly to control reinfestation.
TIMING
The best time to apply is immediately after rain, or during humid
overcast weather when
slugs and snails are most active. For broadacre crops, start when
rain/moisture triggers
snail activity in Autumn and before significant egg laying.
