Slug Bait Station - 2-Pack | Rainproof with Roof | For Ferramol & Iron Phosphate Pellets

Slug bait station — 2-pack — effective protection for your garden against slugs. Use with standard slug bait (e.g. Ferramol or other iron phosphate pellets), which sits well-protected from rain under the integrated roof, so the bait stays effective for longer and lasts the entire season.

Perfect for gardeners tired of seeing plants and vegetables eaten by slugs night after night.

Why a slug bait station with a roof?

When you scatter slug bait directly on the ground, it gets washed away by rain within a few days — and your protection is gone. With this bait station, the pellets stay protected under the roof, last the whole season, and are eaten only by slugs — not by hedgehogs, birds, or pets. Slugs are attracted by the scent, crawl in under the roof, eat the bait, and then dig themselves underground where they die — without leaving visible dead slugs in your garden.

Features

• Integrated roof — protects slug bait from rain (up to 6 weeks of effectiveness with Ferramol)
• Keeps pets and birds out — only slugs can reach the bait
• Reusable — use year after year
• Discreet design — blends naturally into the garden
• Easy to use — lift the roof off, add bait, place it back
• 2 stations per pack — place several around the garden for full coverage

How to use the bait station

1. Lift off the roof
2. Add a small amount of slug bait (e.g. Ferramol) to the bottom
3. Place the roof back on
4. Place the station in a flower bed, along the edge of your vegetable garden, or wherever you see slugs
5. Refill bait every 4–6 weeks throughout the season (March–October)

Tip: Place the stations early in the season (March–April) to catch slugs before they lay eggs. A single slug can lay up to 400 eggs per season — early control is far more effective than late control.

Recommended slug bait

We recommend Ferramol (sold separately at garden centers, hardware stores, and online) — an iron phosphate-based bait that's approved for organic gardens and harmless to pets, birds, and hedgehogs. You can also use beer as a natural alternative, but then you'll need to empty the station manually and regularly.

Where to place the bait station

• In flower beds: Protect strawberries, lettuce, and ornamental plants
• In vegetable gardens: Protect crops from being destroyed
• Along garden borders: Stop slugs before they get in
• Near the compost heap: Slugs overwinter here — catch them early
• In greenhouses: Protected environment for vulnerable plants
• In shaded areas: Slugs prefer damp, cool spots

FAQ

Which slug bait should I use?
We recommend Ferramol (iron phosphate) — approved for organic gardening, rain-resistant. It's available at most garden centers and hardware stores. You can also use beer as a natural alternative.

How many stations do I need?
We recommend 1 station per 5–10 m² of active garden area. For a typical vegetable garden or flower bed, 2–4 stations are usually enough. The stations come in 2-packs, so start with one pack and adjust as needed.

Is it safe for my pets and children?
The station itself is safe. When you use Ferramol as recommended, it's also harmless to pets, hedgehogs, and birds. The station's design keeps them away from the bait for extra safety.

When should I start using the stations?
Start early in the season — March/April — to catch slugs before they mate and lay eggs. This results in significantly fewer slugs later in the year.

Does the station need to be emptied?
No — with Ferramol, the slugs crawl away and die underground. You only need to empty/clean the station if you use beer as bait.
