Hi Marianne >From my packet, 'sprinkle evenly 8-10cm apart ---- 100 baits per square metre. Use gloves, avoid contact with eyes and mouth --- keep away from children and pets'
I used to be a bit heavy handed putting out the baits, but that is a waste. Snails love it and will come to the baits, if I had a problem with garlic snails I would put one or two on the individual pot - more for a larger pot. I usually sprinkle on the bench, and on the ground underneath. Some dogs do love them so the pellets can be put in a container with a lid and a hole for the snails (on the ground). I would think they would last longer than a couple of days, they will break down on contact with water. Our main problem is the larger 'garden snails' that like to try every Phal leaf.......
