Abrasive mineral particles disrupt slug movement and mucus, discouraging crossing.
Fibre
Natural plant fibres create an uneven, uncomfortable surface slugs avoid.
Botanical
Carefully selected botanical deterrents add an additional avoidance cue.
Together, these form a physical, chemical, and botanical barrier — not a poison.
