I bought a small spool of thin copper wire. I wrap this three times
around certain flower pots that have plants that attract snails. I also
wrapped it around the trunk of a tangelo (citrus that is a cross between
pomelo and tangerine) in a way that allows the trunk to grow and expand
without the wire cutting into the bark.
