Hi,

So I've done some reading up on Strulch and was curious to know if anyone has used it AND if it does what it says it does?

It says its very good at preventing snails and slugs getting to your plants... is this true?

Any feedback is welcome.

    I've never used it, but they did some trials on Beechgrove Garden last year - I can't remember the exact details, but strulch came out on top. I think Jim was somewhat aghast at the cost tho.

    The website is here - if you trawl through last years Factsheets you may come across it

    Wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad.

    @Pete8 yes the price is actually quite shocking, and I believe it is meant to be the Eden Projects 1st choice!

    however I would over look the price IF it really does keep the slugs and snails at bay!

    I find it hard to believe their 100L = 3 square meters coverage claim if you're expecting much in the way of weed suppression.
