Copper Rings - Starter Pack

These solid Copper Slug and Snail Rings will keep plants free from slugs and snails and look attractive in your herbaceous borders and amongst vegetable crops. Slugs and snails hate copper, because of a reaction between their mucus and the copper, so use these Copper Rings to protect your plants from slugs and snails. The Copper Rings Starter Pack contains 3 x Standard Rings (10cm / 4″ in diameter) and 3 x Large Rings (17cm / 7″ in diameter).

Full Description

These solid Copper Slug and Snail Rings will last for many years and are simply placed around the plant where they form a barrier which slugs and snails will not cross. Slugs and snails hate copper because of reaction between their mucus and the copper. When the slugs and snails come into contact with the ring they are repelled and will crawl away. They are easy to use as a spring clip allows you to open the ring. Slip it around the stem and then press lightly into the soil. If you have larger plants, just link them together to make a bigger ring. Slug rings can be left in place all winter and will be ready to protect the first tender shoots in spring. After a few weeks, the copper slug rings take on a brown patina to blend into your garden. They are equally effective whether shiny and new, with a brown patina or even ancient green. Copper Rings Starter Pack contains 3 x STANDARD rings (10cm / 4″ in diameter) AND 3 x LARGE rings (17cm / 7″ in diameter).

N.B. We also have Standard Copper Rings and Large Copper Rings available in packs of 6.
