Does Copper Tape
Comments

I did use it a few years ago around large plastic pots with hostas.
It seemed to work but when the sun got really hot I found the sticky stuff on the tape came unstuck

Copper tape isn't working for me, still lots of small slugs munching on my poor peas. Might try the vaseline though...0

In my experience it DOES work (have used it round a raised bed full of strawberries, never seen a single slug in there, whilst one opposite that I did not put it round was full of them), and I found some for 99p at B &M's too..well worth a look.M.A.C.A.W member number 39
