visits from snails in your vegetable patch or flower bed. The ISOTRONIC
snail defense fence uses electricity to keep sensitive pests away from
vegetables, flowers, plants and feeding areas for dogs / cats.
Functionality
Snail fences are very effective and environmentally friendly
methods of slug control. There are many types of snail fences. Our
fence is based on the fact that lines are attached to a flexible tape made
of plastic, which conduct electricity and thus scare off the snails rather
than kill them. No snail can crawl over it!
The fence is flexible, so you can delimit any area, which can be an
advantage. The standard length is 10m, but it can be shortened
individually or please roll up excess material so that it can be deposited
inside the fence. If the area to be protected is larger than 10 meters in
circumference / 4 square meters, please use several sets.
Tip: For a raised bed, please fasten the fence below the edge of the
raised bed with nails or staples. Please do not cut through the metal-
leading tracks. This could interrupt the flow of current.
Installation of the snail fence:
The snail fence can be used as a linear barrier with open ends or as a
closed system (square, rectangle, circle, etc.). The application is versatile
and variable, also for closing off cavities, borders of beds or raised beds.
Our snail fence can be moved non-destructively at any time. You have
the option of adding additional snail fences to easily expand the
protective area at will. Please note when positioning that plants or tall
grass may impair the protective function and may represent a bridge for
the animals (snails) or possibly short-circuit the contact paths, which
leads to the batteries being discharged quickly.
