Copper Plant Rings can be slipped over, or clipped around, plants which you wish to protect from slugs and snails. Copper is said to give slugs a mild 'zing' on their tummy which causes discomfort and encourages them to change direction.

These rings are available in two sizes: 14cm (5.5") in diameter and 5cm (2") tall, and 9cm (3.5") in diameter and 5cm (2") tall, and are handmade in the UK and will last a lifetime.

• Effective Plant Protection: Prevent damaged leaves and plants with copper slug rings. Designed to repel both slugs and snails without harming them. Simply place the rings around specific plants or garden areas to create a protective barrier.
• Safe for Families and Pets: Copper Plant Rings provide a humane alternative to harmful pellets and beer traps. The rings react with the slime produced by slugs and snails, giving them a mild electric shock and sending them away safely.
• Durable and Long-lasting: Hand made in the UK from solid copper, these rings are built to last season after season. Left untreated, they will develop a natural patina, while remaining just as effective as when new.
• Easy to Use: If required the rings can be easily opened and placed around plant stems. For larger plants, simply unbend and link multiple rings together to form a bigger barrier. Copper Plant Rings should be pressed into the soil approx 1cm to prevent slugs crawling under the ring. Copper slug rings can be left in place all year round.

Copper & Green FAQs
What will the product look like as it ages?
This is largely up to you. You can keep the copper in the original shiny condition or let it build a patina, as you desire. The copper will naturally darken over time in a regular home atmosphere, or you can encourage verdigris with household products like salt and vinegar.

Can you create custom or bespoke pieces?
Yes, please get in contact via the contact form on the website or email info@copperandgreen.com. Customer pot designs and dimensions can be accommodated.

What about heat and frost?
Copper is very good at conducting heat and cold. If you keep your planter outside, you may wish to line it with perlite/vermiculite/gravel or another type of insulation. For 90% of the year, this will not be required but in times of extreme heat, or frost, you may want to insulate.

Will copper affect my plants?
Copper can be beneficial to many plants. Some plants however are not so keen if high levels of copper have built up over time. These high levels typically come from decades of exposure where copper has leached into soil. This will not happen with a copper house or garden plant container.
