Hi to all, a remedy for snails/slugs, sprinkle some sawdust around your garden ( if rain-repeat ) You can eradacate ( caterpillars & other pests ) using PYRETHRUM ( read directions thoroughly ) kills pests in minutes and has a WHP ( with holding period ) of 1 day. Yates SUCCESS is similar & controls a lot of pests. Can be harmfull to BEES ( don't spray flowers EG zucc/squash etc ) Has WHP of 3 days & up to 14 on some fruits. Contains SPINOSAD as in tomatoe dust.
