Hi

I have a beautiful Hosta and every year it gets eaten by snails. I
wondered if anyone has any tips on how to stop this from happening. I
can't use slug pellets because of the pets and children. Any
information would be appreciated.

Consider ESCAR-GO

Active ingredient by weight 1% Iron Phosphate
Inert 99% could be blended bread.

Anyone know where to obtain Iron Phosphate? I ask about once a year.

Stuff is expensive but works and is not toxic.
