Blew my mind.
Whoah.This stuff works!And it works fast!Within the span of 2 nights I stopped seeing what I can only call "Bionic Super Evolved Mutant slugs". (And haven't returned!)They would get on everything and their numbers were ridiculous. Nothing I tried could even slightly reduce how much of a pest/nuisance they were.If you haven't tried this yet, give it a try, I have not seen the huge (or small) little creepers ever since I applied this to the affected areas (about a month ago). Bottle/dispenser is thoughtfully designed to dispense and store the product.Another cool thing: Rain did not manage to wash off a lot of the product. Some is still where I poured it.I included a photo of me holding the bottle so you get an idea of the size, which I thought would end up being a lot smaller...But there is enough product here to treat a good amount of space!Overall impression: Highly Impressed. Try this if nothing else.

After a rainy week, I have had disgusting slugs visiting my porch and bird feeder every night. They seem to "remember" their slime trails and will come regardless of whether there's food.

There was less in the jug than I imagined and I blew through most of it in a single application (and it's not exactly cheap). Luckily, it seems to be effective and I have not seen slugs since.

5/5 stars and will probably buy again if the need arises.

Works great on snails, but my puppy keeps eating it. Last night she somehow got the whole thing open and spread it all over everywhere and was licking it up when I found her. Day before yesterday she did the same with coffee grounds. It says this stuff is non-toxic, but also hazardous to humans and pets. I really doubt it would hurt a dog much--this isn't the first time one of my dogs has eaten a little of it, and nothing ever came of it. But she's a young puppy and still only 30something pounds, and I really wasn't sure how much she ate before I found her scarfing up the mess, so just to be safe, I did the hydrogen peroxide trick anyway (you force-feed the dog hydrogen peroxide, and they vomit. I can't even count how many times I've had to do this to dogs over the years. It works every time.).

Anyway, so now I have to buy more. But it's totally worth it! My petunias are beautiful right now, blooming healthy and lush and bright, whereas they were chewed down to the nubs of their leaves when I first put this stuff in the flower bed. As far as I can tell, my main problem is with snails. They are voracious and they wouldn't leave my petunias alone before I got this stuff, and they were even starting in on my begonias, which they're usually not all that interested in.

I noticed a couple years back that the slugs and snails around here really love both tomatoes and petunias, both of which are in the nightshade family (I only knew this because I realized the two plants look sort of similar when they're very young, and they seem to be the favorites of local slugs and snails). So maybe this year I'll be able to grow my tomato plants before the slugs and snails completely massacre them. Or maybe it'll just keep the slugs and snails at bay while the stupid tomato worms take over :( We'll see!

Quick, easy, clean, non-toxic, easy to store and keep on hand. Snails and slugs will be gone by the next day or two. I was over run by actual snails and my bug man told me there wasn’t anything to kill them. I believed him because he is the bug man, stupid me. I was having to step on them to kill them on my deck and it was gross. I finally got the bright idea to look it up on Amazon, saw this, ordered it, used it and that was the end of it. They come back every Spring but I only see 1–5 where I was seeing 10-30 at a time. I sprinkle it around every Spring and I never see another one until the next year. There are less and less every year. Awesome product.

I live in the PNW, slug central. It rains here all the time and the climate is built for them. I also have a pond, with beautiful, gigantic, fat, lily style foliage surrounding it. They were eating everything though. it was so bad, that when we would turn leaves over - we could find 20 easily in a matter of minutes. I didnt like the idea of any sort of pesticides because we have dogs and I have targeted my garden to wildlife (birds etc). I read the reviews on sluggo and saw it was animal safe, so I decided to try it. It began working instantly. I had to cut all of the previously damaged leaves out and as soon as I applied sluggo all over the garden, I stopped seeing any new damage when new growth came in. I have a large yard and i can tell when I need to re-apply. I wont see damage for a couple months and then all of the sudden, a few holes here and there because they are back, so I do a big re-application. Birds do eat it, which is irritating. it doesnt seem to hurt them, but if you have a large yard - I actually moved my bird feeder to a different location, so birds wouldnt hit the parts of the yard that I want the Sluggo to remain in. So this stuff totally works, but.. the snails will eat it, and the birds will eat it - so you have to re-apply through the season. I went through 2 bottles in my back yard this year. Totally worth it though. my plants look great. I will continue to use. i just sprinkle it all over the plant.. on top of leaves and a lot around the base. in my beds - I sprinkle it throughout. I'm in Seattle, it rains a lot.. doesnt seem to affect the pellets ability to do it's thing.

We chose this option because it is wildlife and pet-friendly. It seemed to work well as we saw an immediate reduction of slugs. They had been destroying our Lupins. Unfortunately, after a couple of days of rain, our entire garden was covered in mold from the pellets. We let it dry out and raked as much out as possible. Would not order this product again.
