Sluggo® Slug and Snail Bait uses the unique qualities of iron phosphate to selectively control and eliminate destructive slug and snail species from crops and gardens. Iron phosphate acts as a stomach poison, causing pests to stop feeding immediately; dying slugs and snails leave no slime trails and no messy clean-up. The easy-to-apply, rain-proof, and highly compressed granules provide a higher number of feeding points per acre than larger bait granules, resulting in increased crop protection.

Sluggo is exempt from the requirement for a tolerance when used as a molluscicide on food commodities and unused granules will ultimately degrade in the environment with no harmful effects to water sources, pets, or wildlife. Sluggo is ideal for use around vegetables, fruit trees, citrus, berries, ornamentals, shrubs, flowers, trees, lawns, gardens, and in greenhouses.
