Fertiron is an eco-friendly molluscicide based on iron phosphate (FePO4). It represents a \u201csmart\u201d solution for pest control, as its active ingredient is a natural mineral that enriches the soil with nutrients after decomposition.<\/p>\n

Slugs often pose a threat to plants because they feed on green tissue and hinder development.<\/p>\n

\n

How Fertiron\u2019s Unique Technology Works<\/h3>\n
    \n
  • \nBait:<\/strong> The granules contain food components attractive to slugs. When moistened, the bait swells and becomes even more enticing for the pests.\n<\/li>\n
  • \nFeeding Block:<\/strong> Upon ingestion, the active ingredient damages the slug\u2019s digestive system. The pest immediately loses its appetite and stops feeding.\n<\/li>\n
  • \nIsolation and Death:<\/strong> Unlike chemical agents, slugs poisoned by Fertiron do not die on the surface; they move to underground shelters and die there. The plant surface remains free of slime, and dead pests are not left on the soil.\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n

    Usage Recommendation<\/h3>\n

    Dosage: 7 kg\/ha (60 granules\/m\u00b2)<\/p>\n

    Use 4 times per season, approximately once every 2 weeks.<\/p>\n

    Distribute granules evenly around plants, between rows, or along the perimeter of the protected crop. Avoid piling granules in clumps.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
