It wasn’t flimsy or thin and was more than sticky enough to do the job. I dry wiped my pots to ensure no dust before applying. I’ve only just planted my plants in these pots and I take it that’s the best way to approach the control of pests. If you already have a problem the tape can do little for you. Many slugs burrow under the soil during the day so will already be present in your pots. I’ve applied this to four medium to large pots and I still have a small amount left. You can’t get it smooth, it does wrinkle but it is still aesthetically pleasing and as long as it does the job I’m happy. I will update my review should any slugs manage to cross this. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ great stuff... *by E***S on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on June 6, 2011* Bought this item a few weeks ago and got to work wrapping a raised veg planter with it. I put two layers of tape, one above the other with no gap in between as I've read on the web that the little slimy bu**ers can actually arch their bodies over a thin strip of copper. Hopefully now the amount of arching required will be too big even for the biggest slugs. Must say that so far the tape is doing the trick, no attacks from slugs or snails and I've got hundreds of the them in my garden.The tape is super sticky so grips really well and is a doddle to put on. It even seems to repel ants, which are another headache for me. Only thing I would suggest really would be wider tape so that no doubling up would be required, but I guess it's easy enough to do yourself.Very happy with it, would definitely buy more if needed. It clean, green and no nasty horrible chemicals around my veg :) ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Really pleased just how effective this is *by H***C on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on September 12, 2016* Really pleased just how effective this is. I have a dogs water bowl in the garden that the slugs use as a spa, I seemed to be forever cleaning it and evicting the slugs. (I don't use slug pellets as it poisons hedgehogs and birds so have a fairly large population of the slugs and snails unfortunately). Any way, since putting this tape round the bowl, it's not had any slugs or snails in it, none! I thought it might be a bit of a deterrent but am happily surprised at how effective the tape has been. ## Frequently Bought Together - Defenders Slugs Away Barrier Tape – 4 m, Copper, Natural Slug and Snail Deterrent Adhesive Tape, Bronze - Vitax Slug Gone Wool Pellets, Natural, Organic Barrier To Protect Borders, Pots & Containers From Slugs And Snails, Long Lasting - 1L - Defenders All-Natural Slugs Away Wool Pellets – 1 Litre, Slug Deterrent, Protect Gardens and Plants From Slugs and Snails, Grey --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/5986508-slug-and-snail-barrier-copper-tape](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/5986508-slug-and-snail-barrier-copper-tape) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-05-23*
