Copper Band Slug Rings will keep your precious plants free from slugs and snails, whilst remaining attractive and not causing an eyesore. Simply place the Solid Copper Band around the plants you wish to protect to form a barrier where they will not cross. Non harmful to animals, the copper reacts with the slug/snail mucus which causes them to be repelled by the metal and leaves your plants free from ugly Mollusc infestations. You can place the Copper Band Slug Rings in any season, from the early winter to protect your spring shoots, to late winter/early spring to protect your garden vegetables. The natural oxidization of the metal means that it will take on a colour that will blend well with the garden and remain just as effective as when they were shiny and new. All Rings are made from solid copper & will last for many years Easy to use-spring clip allows you to open & just slip around the stem. Press lightly into the soil Link together for larger plants.

So far they seem to be working. I live in the Pacific Northwest and we have LOTS of slugs. I had put them around some of my hostas and the slugs have not attacked them like they did the others that did not have the band around them. I will definitely order another set to put around the remaining ones as the crushed egg shells do not work.

It should work, but doesn't seem to.
Doesn't seem to work. I've seen snails crawl right over it. Are my snails just super tough?

These really work saving many of my Hosta plants from slugs! Just place the copper rings around the bottom of the plant, press gently into the soil & slugs won't cross this barrier.

so far so good
I have these around the trunks of my dwarf citrus trees and so far no snails, but I gave them four stars rather than five because I'm not really sure how well they work because so far this winter I've seen very snails and only a few slugs, but this product was recommended to me and I've got a feeling they will be effective come spring time.

Slugs didn't seem concerned
They didn't work. Clearly there was some chemical reaction as you could see the black trails the slugs had made going up and over. Also unless your plants are very upright they flop over the band so making them pointless. On the plus side it took less than 5 minutes to bend them into shape and put them on.

It Works!
The slugs and snails won't cross this, so a chemical free way of controlling them.

Keep them out of your house
Used this tape indoors and outdoors. Results indoors are amazing, does keep the slugs at bay. Outdoors, no so convinced...

beat the slugs
My neighbours runners beans have been eaten, but mine are fine behind their wall of copper. Careful as you bend these round as they are metal and quite sharp. I cut myself in a minor way. I have two dogs, so slug pellets just are not an option
