I wouldn't buy any though - they're very expensive and we might not have
enough life left to make them worthwhile. Younger people would benefit from
them but copper is easy to cut so you could make your own.

Where can one buy copper sheet?

And is it just copper they don't like? Would using, say, galvanised metal
windowboxes or containers also deter slugs? And does it work for snails too?
I've long been thinking of planting some hostas in galvanised containers but
it's Snail City here so I don't know if they'd last long.
