5.0 out of 5 stars great stuff... 6 Jun 2011
By emos
Bought this item a few weeks ago and got to work wrapping a raised veg planter with it. I put two layers of tape, one above the other with no gap in between as I've read on the web that the little slimy bu**ers can actually arch their bodies over a thin strip of copper. Hopefully now the amount of arching required will be too big even for the biggest slugs. Must say that so far the tape is doing the trick, no attacks from slugs or snails and I've got hundreds of the them in my garden.

The tape is super sticky so grips really well and is a doddle to put on. It even seems to repel ants, which are another headache for me. Only thing I would suggest really would be wider tape so that no doubling up would be required, but I guess it's easy enough to do yourself.

Very happy with it, would definitely buy more if needed. It clean, green and no nasty horrible chemicals around my veg :)

Needed this tape as have too many slugs and snails creeping on to the flowers
and small trees I am bringing along. Works a treat and does not do any harm
to the wee pests. Next door's garden gets the brunt so you may have another
customer soon.

5.0 out of 5 stars How come there's no slugs in my garden? 6 Sep 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase
This is the stuff!!! And luckily it's waterproof too! so if it was to rain in the summer.....(as if!!) you know the salad will still grow and will only get eaten by who's meant to! It seams such an easy way of getting rid of garden slug pests....once you have some in your garden shed...you'll become an advert of them and make sure you never run out of it!!

3.0 out of 5 stars Short measure
Bought two rolls of this product which are advertised as containing 4 metres of tape per roll. Well, they don't! As measured each contained 3.65m - a shortfall of 35cm i.e. 8%. Read more

The slugs definitely don't like it and have turned away, so it's good from that aspect.

It works pretty well. If you have big slugs you may need to double up, to make a 2inch barrier. They will get through it if there's a gap anywhere or an overhanging plant that... Read more

2.0 out of 5 stars Slug and Snail Barrier
Was disappointed with this product. The slugs and snails still managed to get into some of the pots, the instructions for use were followed. Would not recommend.

2.0 out of 5 stars Thin and flimsy
The last copper strip I bought was really strong but this one is very thin and tears easily. I certainly won't buy it again.
