WHO CAUSES IT?
Snails and slugs are terrestrial mollusks that can become devastating pests in crops and gardens. These organisms feed on a wide variety of plants, including ornamental and garden plants, which can cause significant damage to their foliage and structure. In addition to their direct impact on plants, snails and slugs can also be vectors of diseases and pathogens, further compounding their impact on plant health.
SYMPTOMS
In ornamental and garden plants, the presence of snails and slugs can cause visible damage to the foliage, manifested by the presence of holes and bites in the leaves. Additionally, these organisms can leave a slimy trail of mucus in their wake, which can result in an unsightly appearance on affected plants. In severe cases, continued feeding by snails and slugs can weaken plants and compromise their overall health.
