Captain Jack's Slug Magic is a pelletized product made from a blend of iron phosphate and Ferramol™ Slug and Snail Bait that is irresistible to slimy garden intruders. One bite, however, and they'll be done as Captain Jack's Slug Magic causes them to stop feeding right away, become less active, and die within 3-6 days. Because slugs and snails often crawl away to somewhere secluded to die, you may not see the dead ones. However, this is a time-tested method of slug control so you can be confident it's doing the job. You should also feel comfortable using Captain Jack's Slug Magic liberally as any bait not ingested will degrade seamlessly into the soil. In fact, iron phosphate is a common ingredient in many fertilizers.
This product can be used to protect home lawns, gardens, greenhouses, outdoor ornamentals, vegetable gardens, fruits, berries, citrus, and crop plants. For best results, apply the bait in the evenings as slugs and snails mostly travel and feed in the dark hours. Captain Jack's Slug Magic should be scattered on the soil and around plants that are to be protected. Slugs and snails will leave their daytime hiding places to feed at night, so treating the perimeters of garden plots is an excellent way to catch them as they enter. They like to hide in damp places around plants and in flower gardens, rockeries, hedges, Dichondra lawns, citrus groves, ivy patches, and other ground covers; so you'll want to bait around those as well.
