Snail trap

The snail trap is designed to monitor and catch snails in home gardens, vegetable gardens and arable lands. The trap is used to catch both snails and shelled snails. In particular for catching the slug (Deroceras reticulatum) and the Lusitian saliva (Arion lusitanicus). The listed species are among the most harmful. The trap is a special container with a roof that protects against atmospheric conditions and shades the lure’s place. Snails usually feed in humid and shady places. The trap is enough to supplement with popular food products that lure snails. For this reason, the trap is completely safe for humans, animals and useful insects. By using the trap, you can safely reduce the number of snails without using any chemical. The snail trap is made of plastic, which allows it to be reused after emptying.

Application method

As the bait you can use:

Beer
Honey
Milk mixed with water
Yeast mixed with water
Honey and yeast mixed with water
Oil for frying with water
Rum flavor for cakes mixed with water
Chopped potatoes, carrots, lettuce leaves

In the place where snails stay or move, make a hole in the ground for the container.

Half fill the trap container with bait – e.g. beer.
Remove the upper lid of the trap and place the container in the previously made hole and carefully sprinkle around the ground so that the rim of the container is level with the ground surface.
Put the top cover protecting the trap against dirt and rain.
Cover the container by leveling its top edge with the ground level.
Check the trap regularly. When the trap is filled with snails, rinse it with water and put it back in the previous place and fill with bait.
