Profile

Kendon Socusil’s strategy is to specifically target the areas for protection. (Eg:- buds & shoots) and repel snails away from these areas.

Socusil is sprayed on as a solution and then dries out to a thin gel film. The gel sticks to most surfaces and is not a re-soluble in water. It is rain fast.

Socusil creates a protective barrier that is irritating to snails and slugs, they are reluctant to cross the barrier.

Key Features & Benefits

Effective snail control: Disrupts snail movement and metabolism, reducing population and crop damage. (This is not a chemical that will kill the snails).
Repellent action: Irritates snails on contact, discouraging feeding and movement on treated areas.
Long-lasting activity: Buffered formulation ensures controlled release of copper ions for sustained effectiveness. The buffered copper silicate solution does not wash off when it is dry.
Rain fast within 2 hours after irrigation or rainfall: Long lasting barrier that doesn’t degrade.
Safe to the soil: No harm or effect on beneficial earthworms and soil- microorganisms.
Safe for animals: Safe for use where cats, dogs, birds, ants and bees are likely to be exposed.
