Many people start fighting slugs from the very beginning of the season and do not stop until frost..
With such a responsible approach, the risk of pests appearing on the site will be minimal..
What methods can be distinguished
Fences
Slugs will not be able to penetrate the site if you install fences. The width of such ‘lines’ should be from ten centimeters and more.
We use them not only along the perimeter of the site, but also near plants. Ideal options would be pine needles, sand with small sharp shells, walnut shells and chicken egg shells.
Hot spices
Spices will not harm the plantings, but they can make them unattractive to slugs. Ideal options would be ground chili peppers and dry mustard.
They can be used to treat paths and dust plants.
You can also consider tobacco dust.
Chemicals.
If there are a lot of slugs, then you cannot do without specialized products. Therefore, you should not refuse to use them. It is best to use them in the summer to destroy the maximum number of pests.
