Troubleshooting

Product is not deterring slugs/snails.

Ensure thorough coverage of plant surfaces. Reapply after heavy rain or very frequent watering as the protective layer may be washed away. Check application frequency, reapplying every 7-10 days.

Spray nozzle is blocked (Ready-to-use).

Remove the nozzle and soak it in warm water. Gently clear any blockages with a small pin or brush. Ensure the container is stored upright to prevent debris from entering the nozzle.

Inconsistent mixing with concentrate.

Ensure you are using the correct water ratio as per the product label. Stir the mixture thoroughly after adding water and before and during application. Use clean water for mixing.

Plants appear discolored after application.

This is uncommon, but ensure the product was mixed at the correct dilution if using concentrate. Avoid spraying in direct, hot sunlight which can sometimes stress plants. Typically, any effect is temporary.
