  • dealing with snails: copper tape on ebay

    I built a slug/snail fortress 2 weeks ago, a box with copper tape around the bottom and a fleece wall above it (will post picture with another thread as soon as OH is back with the camera).

    But decided that I needed some more copper tape, just bought 12 rolls of the stuff of ebay for 19:50 inc shipping, that's a quarter of the price I've seen elsewhere.

    Seller doesn't have any more 12 roll packs right now but does still have 3 packs for £6.

    Similar stuff is about £7 from chase so I thought I'd let you all know now that I've selfishly yoinked the 12 pack

    I've found it really works so I hope this stuff is as good as the tape I bought before. My courgettes in the ground are not more, the ones in my copper lined fortress are currently untouched.

    Thanks for that - copper tape really works in my garden too but I've been despairing at the cost so am on my way over to ebay quick!! ...
    Life may not be the party we hoped for but since we're here we might as well dance
