Slug & Snail Repellent

Slugs and Snails, the bane of many a gardeners’ life, can be persuaded not to chomp on plants by using alpaca fibre. This low grade, unwashed alpaca fibre is so water repellent and dry that no self respecting slug wants to crawl over it.

Arrange it around the plants and you have a slug and snail barrier.

Its second useful property is that alpaca fibre is warm, as anyone who has worn our Posh Socks will know, so it conveys that little bit of extra heat to both soil and plant.

We have bags of our own short, low grade mixed colour fibre in  500 gram and one kilo bags. It has not been washed so you might find the odd bit of organic matter.
