Ryset Slug & Snail Trap

The Chemical-Free Solution for Effective Pest Management.

The Ryset Slug and Snail Trap is a poison-free tool designed to protect vulnerable seedlings and garden beds from gastropod damage. By utilising a simple and time-honoured method of lure-and-capture, this trap provides an eco-friendly alternative to chemical pellets, making it a safe choice for gardens shared with pets, local wildlife, and children.

Discreet and Effective Design

This trap is engineered to be buried partially in the soil, allowing snails and slugs to enter easily while remaining unobtrusive in the garden landscape. The protective lid serves a dual purpose: it prevents rain from diluting the bait and ensures that non-target species do not accidentally enter the trap. It is particularly effective when placed near high-value crops such as lettuces and young brassicas.

Versatile and Reusable

Manufactured from durable, weather-resistant plastic, it is designed for multiple seasons of use. It can be baited with a variety of household attractants, the most popular being beer or a simple mixture of yeast, sugar, and water. Once the trap has reached capacity, it is easily emptied, cleaned, and reset, providing a sustainable, long-term solution for organic pest control.
