Sluxx HP for Slugs

ACTION AND PROPERTIES OF SLUXX HP:

Sluxx HP is a modern slug control product developed for maximum effectiveness and ease of use (granulated bait RB form). Its innovative mode of action causes slugs to immediately stop feeding and retreat into soil refuges where they die after consuming the granulate. This unique process ensures no dead pests remain on the crop surface, which is particularly important for maintaining the aesthetic value of ornamental plants and leafy vegetables. The crop itself receives immediate and long-lasting protection against damage.
