Cue the autumn rain and they’re off! Snails have been hiding away just waiting for a little bit of moisture to start their slippery slide over to your plants. Brunnings are here to help with some great poison free tips! Agapanthus are a super tough plant around this state, they’re also a great hiding spot for snails too! With those hard shells there’s no point using harsh chemicals, you could sprinkle snail bait around, or try some poison free alternatives from Brunnings! You may not be aware that beer is in fact a great snail attractant, especially full strength ale. All you need to do is fill a dish and leave it overnight, it’s a guarantee that it will be full in the morning!
