Default stop snails climbing shrubs


What you need is a flexible copper tape, wafer thin, it could come on
a roll, rather like sellotape. I have seen such a thing on my
friend's large garden pots, half way up the pot, it stops slugs
climbing into the pot and it works 100%. Now that could well be a
lucrative sideline for your business.

Electrical Wholesalers such as Newey & Eyre, City Electrics and the like
Used by Electricians for Electrical earth Bonding.

Also used in Shipbuilding in the Radio and Radar Rooms, again for Earth
Electrical 'Grounding'

The price of Copper has soared lately so try your Industrial Estates for the
Electrical Wholesalers instead of Garden Centres

Comes in 'about' 20 metre rolls 'about' 15mm wide and you can cut it with a
SHARP pair of Kitchen Scissors. Put the strip right up near the pivot when
you cut it.
