Snails and Slugs

Snails and slugs are primarily pests of seedlings and herbaceous plants. In this rather cold and rainy season of 2020 which is a snail paradise, our chilli plants are being eaten and bitten all over the place :-/

These creatures primarily target seedlings and herbaceous plants, often causing significant damage to your chilli garden. Protecting your plants involves a combination of barriers, natural predators, and environmentally friendly repellents. Regularly inspect your garden, especially during wet weather, and remove any visible snails and slugs.
