Regards Josie "I have ordered online from you three times now, having read about you in The Times. On each occasion, my order has been delivered in the shortest possible time. Moreover, your products have worked! From being at the point of giving up over the damage done by slugs, I'm now starting to sow seeds again, knowing that you'll provide me with ways to protect my young plants. Your website is very user-riendly and it feels like being greeted politely in a shop by knowledgeable, but unintrusive, staff. Thankyou. I will certainly be back." Yours faithfully, Anny Kilbourne. |

 Pre-order Nemaslug Slug KillerPre-order Nemaslug® for delivery in March - It is important to apply Nemaslug® as soon as the soil is warm enough to target the young slugs BEFORE they have chance to damage new growth and breed. Slug eggs laid last autumn hatch in the spring with the young slugs staying underground, feeding on humus before emerging to feed on new growth in your garden. Nemaslug® contains natural nematodes, which are effective at controlling slugs and unlike chemical controls, are safe for children, pets, birds and wildlife. Apply Nemaslug® AS SOON as the soil temperature is above 5°C/40°F, but don't worry if the temperature falls after you have applied it as Nemaslug® is capable of surviving the odd frost. Pre-order Nemaslug for delivery w/c 05/03 - the ideal time to start treating. Read more...  Fumigate Greenhouses NOWFumigate greenhouses with Biofume Greenhouse Candles as recommended by Adam Pascoe in the Gardeners World magazine - "Take this opportunity to clean the glass and framework and fumigate to get rid of any pests and fungal spores. Try Biofume from Green Gardener, which produces smoke that gets into all the nooks and crannies. Use 2 candles per greenhouse. Seal the windows and doors, so the smoke does not escape." Use Biofume Garlic Candles in the same way as a sulphur candle HOWEVER, unlike sulphur candles you do NOT need to remove the plants and they are safe to use in aluminium greenhouses and polytunnels.
