Professional repellent granules on porous volcanic rock for olfactory deterrence and scent masking of snails - Homemade – carefully mixed according to our own recipe!
SNOEK's snail granules are ready-to-use repellent granules designed to prevent snails from invading vegetable, ornamental, and container crops in both horticulture and outdoor gardens. The porous lava granules act as a mineral carrier for geraniol and lavandin oil. The formulation works with a double sensory effect: it creates an odor barrier while simultaneously masking the specific plant scents of potential host plants, so snails can no longer locate the crops as a food source.
Your benefits at a glance:
Sensory double effect: Creates a repelling scent barrier around the edges while simultaneously masking the specific aromas of potential host plants.
No carcass or slime residues: The animals are prevented from moving in rather than being killed in the population, so there's no slimy buildup.
Plant-friendly and residue-free: The product is safe for plants because the active ingredients are released as a passive gas and don’t get into the plant tissue.
Soil-improving side effect: The weather-resistant volcanic granulate stays in the substrate after the essential oils evaporate, serving as a mineral material that helps aerate the soil.
Declaration of active substances and BAuA registration:
Product type: Biocidal product / Repellent (PT 19)
BAuA reg. no.: N-36535
Active substances: Geraniol (6.0 g / 100 g), Lavandin oil (1.4 g / 100 g)
Carrier material: 100% porous volcanic granulate (pumice/lava)
Application and Spreading: For outdoor use only.
Barrier application (protective ring): Lay a continuous protective line at a distance of about 2 to 4 cm around each granule, continuously around the bed or crop area to be protected.
Area and edge application: Spread widely over storage areas, paths, or border strips to protect adjacent fallow areas.
Duration of effect: The repellent effect lasts between 1 and 3 weeks, depending on the weather (rain, sunlight, irrigation).
Practical tip for weather: Placing individual granules under protective plant parts (e.g., under large leaves of rhubarb or zucchini) slows down washing out by heavy rain and extends the scent release.
Follow-up treatment: After heavy overhead irrigation or prolonged rain, renew the granule barrier.
Safety and hazard information: Use biocidal products with care. Always read the label and product information before use.
