Ortho® Slug B Gon Eco Ready-to-Use Slug & Snail Bait, 1-kg

Product Details

To some, the word slug means lazy. To gardeners, it just means trouble. Stop slugs from munching their way through your vegetable, flower, and fruit plants with ORTHO SLUG B GON ECO SLUG AND SNAIL BAIT. Just apply in the evening before slugs and snails come out for their nighttime or early morning feeding. Made with ferric phosphate, an ingredient found naturally in soil, slugs eat the bait, stop feeding, and usually crawl away to hide. Affected slugs and snails die within 3-6 days. Uneaten bait simply degrades into the soil. No mess and no cleanup. No slugs and no snails.

  • Scotts Ortho Slug B Gon Slug & Snail Bait provides immediate protection to garden plants.

  • Effectively creates a barrier to slugs and snails – affected snails and slugs die within 3-6 days

  • Ideal for all types of garden plants, including vegetable and flower gardens, ornamental shrubs, berry plants, and fruit

  • Active Ingredient - Iron presented as ferric phosphate at 0.28%

  • Bag contains ready-to-scatter bait granules

  • Size: 1 kg (2.2 lbs) covers approximately 200 sq. m.

Good Riddance to Slugs

13 days ago
Great product for ridding the garden of slugs. I have a shade garden with hostas and liguaria and even though I don't see them, there is evidence of slugs by the holes in the leaves of my plants. This product is spread around the bottom and my plants don't suffer further damage.

Bye, bye slugs!

After a devastating loss to slugs eating dahlia shoots, there is now visible growth since applying Slug B Gon. Appears to be working! I've been adding more after each heavy rainfall.

RATS LOVE IT

a month ago
You’ll have regrets with this product. Because instead of slugs you’ll have rats in the masses. As it turns out, rats love the flavour of these. They chewed threes the bag on my deck and took up residence underneath it where I sprinkled these. DO NOT use these if you have mice or rats in the area.

No, I do not recommend this product.

Q: Can it be used on lawns as well

  • A: I'm not sure. I ever only use it on tomatoes and squash and it works really great. I suspect if you see slugs and snails it will just work the same

Q: Is this product harmful to birds?

3 years ago
2 Answers
  • A: I found this information: “ Safe, non-toxic to people, pets, children, birds, insects, earthworms, and other wildlife. Iron phosphate is a naturally occurring soil compound that will naturally degrade and become part of the soil if uneaten (after all the slugs and snails are gone). Avoid direct applications to ponds, streams, lakes and other bodies of water.”
