Manufactured by The Recycle Works, this eco-friendly solution is safe for pets and children, making it the perfect choice for conscientious gardeners. ## Description Slug Gone pure wool pellets are manufactured from the fleece of sheep. Wool fibres have very fine scales with small barbs on the tip called cuticle cells. These cause wool fibres to felt and matt together. Wool fibres are very hygroscopic and this plus the sand and grit already in the compound and the potassium salts from the sweat glands of the sheep absorb some of the slime from the slug's foot to cause irritation, resulting in the slug finding easier feeding methods. 'Slug Gone' wool pellets are composed of 100% natural materials including phosphorous, nitrogen and potassium. As soon as water is added the fibres swell to form a barrier or insulation blanket. When slugs climb onto the fibres it irritates the foot and causes it to seek easier feeding elsewhere. 'Slug Gone' wool pellets are ideal for organic gardening and can be used in pots, flower beds, borders, allotments, herb gardens, nurseries, garden centres, green houses and vegetable plots. To Use: Clean the area around the plant and place the pellets to fill the surface of the pot, or in a 6” circle around the plant. Make sure all the pellets are touching. Water well and soon the pellets will swell and bind together to form both a prtotective and insulating blanket. See Detailed Images Contains: Nitrogen 3.6% Phosphorus 0.4% Potassiu8m 3.1% These elements are slow released as the pellets biodegrade, taking up to 12 months This product is entirely safe for children, pets and wildlife. Not only do the pellets keep Slugs and Snails at bay, the pellets are also a good mix and balance for growing plants, fruit and vegetables. The pellets hold twice their own weight in water so they act as an excellent mulch, a weed suppressant, a soil conditioner and slow release fertiliser! Slug Gone is 100% natural, ideal for organic gardening and is safe for children, animals and garden wildlife. Review: It does work! - I have used sheep's wool pellets before to try and deter slugs and it does work! It seems to work best when you have a fairly broad strip of the pellets, so for a plant pot, you probably want to surround the plant with the pellets up to the edge of the pot. Anything smaller and the slugs seem to be able to pick their way across. These pellets are really easy to use and a safe and natural way of deterring slugs and snails. Sprinkle a fairly generous layer of pellets around your plant. It doesn't have to be a deep layer but make sure that most of the soil is covered. Water the pellets so they expand and turn into a rough mat, which the slugs find prickly. It doesn't hurt slugs but does deter them and after a few months when your plant has grown big and strong, the mat slowly biodegrades and feeds the soil. The only drawback if if you have a dog or cat, that they might find the smell of freshly watered sheep's wool pellets very attractive (although this does go off after the first couple of waters), and have a good roll or dig in your plant pots. You may then need to think of pet deterrents! Review: Good Stuff - The most effective slug repellent I've tried in 40 years of gardening, no "dead bodies" to worry about, keeps plants safe and snug and gives them a nutrient boost, plus helping to retain moisture in my sandy soil. Its expensive stuff, and you have to be generous, but so far it's been worth every penny. PS I like the smell of lanolin, others might not, but it is used in the garden, so no worries. ## Features - Size: 20 Litre Bag - 100% Organic ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B004WC8AM2 | | Brand | The Recycle Works | | Brand Name | The Recycle Works | | Colour | Natural | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 out of 5 stars 64 Reviews | | Indoor Outdoor Usage | Outdoor | | Indoor/Outdoor usage | Outdoor | | Manufacturer | The Recycle Works | | Material Features | Organic | | Material feature | Organic | | Number of Pieces | 1 | | Other Special Features of the Product | Natural | | Plant or Animal Product Type | Slugs | | Product Care Instructions | water | | Special feature | Natural | | Unit Count | 20000.0 millilitre | | Unit count | 20000.0 millilitre | ## Product Details - **Plant or animal product type:** Slugs - **Indoor/Outdoor usage:** Outdoor - **Brand:** The Recycle Works - **Material feature:** Organic - **Colour:** Natural - **Special feature:** Natural - **Unit count:** 20000.0 millilitre - **Product care instructions:** water - **Number of pieces:** 1 ## Images ![Slug Gone - Organic Natural Pure Wool Pelletts Slug Repellant (20 Litre Bag) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/8138spA0usL.jpg) ![Slug Gone - Organic Natural Pure Wool Pelletts Slug Repellant (20 Litre Bag) - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91t46C4PRXL.jpg) ![Slug Gone - Organic Natural Pure Wool Pelletts Slug Repellant (20 Litre Bag) - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81cEx0tqvwL.jpg) ![Slug Gone - Organic Natural Pure Wool Pelletts Slug Repellant (20 Litre Bag) - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81gtqzA4iQL.jpg) ![Slug Gone - Organic Natural Pure Wool Pelletts Slug Repellant (20 Litre Bag) - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81FIKbl4JsL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: What area does this amount cover** A: We have used for our hostas this year and have had so little damage from slugs that we are pretty amazed. We have used heavilly and have pretty well emptied our big bag. the answer is that if you really want to grow something that slugs just love to eat you have to go the extra mile (penny) to achieve it! Very highly reccommended **Q: We have foxes visiting in our garden and they seem to dig holes in the garden , pull up plants and I wonder if the sheep smell might encourage them ?** A: It wouldn't surprise me as my dog ate Slug Gone to his detriment. The smell or something in the product attracted him to eat it and made him very ill. I worry that other animals including wildlife may suffer in the way my pet did. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ It does work! *by O***R on 12 June 2012* I have used sheep's wool pellets before to try and deter slugs and it does work!

No substitute for getting rid of them. Expensive mistake. Storage a problem because of the smell. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/54285666-slug-gone-organic-natural-pure-wool-pelletts-slug-repellant-20](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/54285666-slug-gone-organic-natural-pure-wool-pelletts-slug-repellant-20) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-11-10*
