Protect-us Snail and Slug Killer
Protect-us Mineral Snail and Slug Killer is a unique product that is highly effective in the control of snails and slugs. Uniquely utilising elemental iron, Protect-us Mineral Snail and Slug Killer is a low-toxic alternative to metaldehyde and methiocarb baits that displays similar or better levels of control and protection.
It has been independently reviewed and approved as garden safe. In fact, all the ingredients are currently used in either food for human consumption, pharmaceuticals or cosmetics for human applications.
Elemental iron is an essential dietary nutrient. Any residues present on fruit or vegetables, or systemically available from skin contact, are indistinguishable from the iron of environmental origin. When the bait is consumed by snails, the low pH in the snail’s gut activates the product, forming an iron salt that causes the snails and slugs to stop feeding, protecting your plants and leading to the death of the molluscs.
Snails and slugs are so attracted to the Protect-us Mineral Snail and Slug Killer that it actually lures them out of their hiding places. Palatability of the bait is specifically targeted at Australian snail and slug species. Protect-us Mineral Snail and Slug Killer is the only Registered Allowed Input for snail and slugs when growing Organic and Biodynamic Produce.
If you are looking for protection on any of your young plants try our Slug and Snail Plant Protection Kit Simply press our specifically designed and patented product around the plant. This will stop snails or slugs getting to your plants. You also have the option to place a protective cover over the top to stop birds from damaging your crops.

Had a major snail problem in the vegetable garden. A relatively small amount was spread around the beds. Snail damage now resolved. Particularly wanted a product that was safe for wildlife as we have blue tongues, skinks and thornbills. Good product

I’ve had a dreadful plague of snails and have collected bucket loads over the last few months. I’ve tried beer traps and caught a few but they preferred my plants. My pestrol snail bait arrived a couple of weeks ago and I’m amazed at what is now flowering. I’ll be sure to keep using it regularly. I have a small dog and feel confident that he will be safe.

It works, has saved my garden from slug infestation. Organic and has worked better than anything else or method I have tried to date. THANKS.

I don’t have to worry about my dog or any wildlife being poisoned by this product. After all the rain there are so many slugs around that I can now keep under control

Works a treat on snails and slugs but the packaging was dodgy with the closer welded shut and unopenable.

This product is awesome. I had so many snails and slugs. After sprinkling this around, I now only have empty snail shells. And my dog has shown NO interest in eating this bait.
Win, win.

Absolutely love it, tested it late the other night when there were many slugs out eating the duck food and as soon as I sprinkled it around they went for it, super palatable, couple days have gone by and they seem to be all gone, went from having atleast 40 slugs in the food bowl every night to none, I’m impressed and it is literally just iron powder and minerals so it can’t hurt my ducks 🙂 also since they are small black pellets they aren’t an eye sore like those green pellets, I think these work better too because you can really spread them around liberally vs the dodgy green pellets. 10/10

Always happy to see my blue tongued lizards still alive and the snails not! Use gloves as you can get black all over your hand.

As expected

The product is great. It works very well and being black and small has no attractant elements likely to entice our dog. The only reason I didn’t give 5 stars was the packaging. It was loose, which caused a bag to open and the petrol snail bait was all over the place inside the packaging.
