The Slugpro programme has helped us enormously in knowing exactly when to apply snail bait pellets. In the past, we just assumed that snails bred in spring. Now that we know exactly when the eggs hatch we also know exactly when and at which stage to apply the snail bait pellets.

These days we also put out snail traps so that we can, with Arnold’s help, monitor snail movement, when the eggs are being laid and when they hatch. We used to have a really bad snail problem, but with the help of Slugpro our snail control system is the best it has ever been.
