Slug trap (double pack)

The slug catcher for your garden!

Summer is coming, the vegetable patch has been sown and the wait for the first juicy red strawberries and well-grown lettuce begins. The bright red of the strawberries literally draws us in and invites us to pick and eat them! But what is that? Half of it is missing on the back! Quickly pick the next one ... oh no, the same again and the lettuce also has so many holes. When looking for the culprit, you won't find anything during the day, but as soon as dusk sets in, the culprits show up. Slugs are the most common lettuce and strawberry thieves in the animal world. Slugs and snails are nocturnal and are attracted to the smell of beer, so you may either drink the beer yourself take a pass on healthy organic fruit and vegetables from your garden – or you sacrifice approx. 400 ml, fill it into a trap to catch the slugs and snails and have the food all to yourself.

When setting up the traps, you should consider the following points:

1. Do not place the trap in the middle of the vegetable or strawberry bed. The smell of beer attracts slugs, meaning it might attract slugs from the surrounding area as well. Place the traps around the bed. For lasting success, you should also place a slug trap on the property line to prevent the slugs and snails from entering your own garden in the first place.
2. Place the bottom of the trap flat on the ground or bury it in the ground so that the top edge is level with the ground.
3. Fill the trap with beer and add 2 teaspoons of salt. Then put the cover on the base.
4. Check daily whether you have caught anything and empty the trap if necessary.
