SnailStop Electric Fence
Protect Your Garden From Snails & Slugs
New! Low-voltage electric fence protects vegetables and flowers from slugs and snails without chemicals. Harmless to humans and animals!
Affix electric fence tape around your garden or raised bed to create a barrier that repels all kinds of slugs. On contact, the snail will feel an unpleasant tingling and be persuaded to turn around.
- Stops slugs and snails in their slimy tracks
- Protect your plants without chemicals or toxins
- Fence tape adheres to most surfaces (e.g. stone, wood, metal and concrete)
- Battery operated (9V), no power connection required

Common Questions
- Does SnailStop kill the snails?
- No! The snails only feel a slight tingling sensation that makes them turn around.
- Will I get an electric shock? Is it dangerous for my child or my pet?
- For other animals and also for humans, the effect is not noticeable and is harmless.
- Can I extend the fence tape?
- Yes. Add an additional section of fence tape (33 ft or 66 ft) and a fence tape connector.
Precautions
Overgrowth (grass, leaves, etc.) can form electrical bridges and negatively influence the function. In this case, the fence status LED flashes red when the test button is pressed. In addition, parts of plants can be used by the snails as “ladders” to overcome the fence. Cut back any overgrowth regularly.
