Composition
SNAILKILL (Metaldehyde 2.5% Pellet) is a trusted molluscicide specially designed for farmers, gardeners, and plantation owners. It protects crops like potato, sweet potato, carrot, citrus, grapevine, tea, rice, paddy, and vegetables from snail and slug damage. Its unique dry pellet formulation ensures consistent performance in both field and greenhouse conditions.
Once ingested, SNAILKILL quickly hydrolyzes into acetaldehyde, leading to excess mucus production, dehydration, and eventual death of snails and slugs. This makes it a highly effective, target-specific solution for long-term crop protection without harming the environment.
