Sluggo Plus - Multi-Pest Garden Bait Overview:Sluggo Plus combines iron phosphate and spinosad, two natural, biologically derived active ingredients, to offer a broad-spectrum bait that controls both mollusks and insects. It's safe for use around people, pets, birds, and beneficial insects (when used as directed), and is especially helpful in no-till, organic, and permaculture systems where ground-dwelling pests can otherwise be difficult to manage. Key Characteristics Multi-Pest ProtectionControls slugs, snails, earwigs, cutworms, sowbugs, pillbugs, and crickets-all with one product. Useful for protecting young seedlings, root crops, and tender annuals from ground-level pest damage. Organic Approved with Dual IngredientsContains both iron phosphate (for mollusks) and spinosad (a microbial insecticide derived from soil bacteria). OMRI-listed and safe for use in certified organic gardens. Safe for Wildlife and Soil LifeNon-toxic to pets, humans, birds, and earthworms. Spinosad breaks down quickly in the environment and has low impact on beneficial insects when used as a bait rather than a spray. Ideal for Permaculture and No-Till SystemsExcellent fit for low-disturbance systems where insect populations can be high in moist mulch and organic matter. Works well in food forests, forest-edge plantings, and vegetable beds with mulch or cover crops. Long-Lasting & Rain ResistantDesigned to hold up in wet environments. Slugs and insects are attracted to the bait, consume it, and stop feeding almost immediately, dying within a few days.
