Slug & Snail Safety Guidelines

• Inform us: allergies, asthma, pregnancy, infants, or chemical sensitivities in the household or workplace.
• Access: clear safe access to agreed treatment zones (cupboards, voids, perimeters, stations).
• Pets & ponds: cover pet food; discuss fish tanks, ponds, and outdoor animals before spray or bait placement.
• Flag pet runs, chicken coops, and ponds before bait or barrier placement.

During

• Follow the technician’s instructions on staying clear of active application zones.
• Ask questions if anything is unclear—especially for commercial kitchens, schools, or healthcare.

After

• Re-entry: return only when the technician says surfaces are dry or contact times are met.
• Cleaning: avoid wiping treated surfaces early—premature cleaning can remove product where residual control is part of the plan.
• Activity: short-term pest movement can occur while treatments take effect; persistent issues should be reported per your guarantee terms.

• Reduce irrigation that keeps beds constantly wet.
• Trim dense ground covers that touch paving edges.
