MetaSh 3% Molluscicide – Best Snail & Slug Killer

METASH 3% Molluscicide is a high-performance bait designed to combat common mollusk pests such as snails and slugs, which are responsible for severe crop damage in the Middle East’s irrigated agriculture systems. Its formulation features metaldehyde (3% w/w), a proven active ingredient that disrupts the mucous production of mollusks, leading to rapid dehydration and mortality.
The granule design ensures easy broadcasting, high palatability, and uniform coverage across fields, gardens, and greenhouse beds. METASH 3% offers extended activity through its weather-resistant coating, making it suitable for outdoor and indoor cultivation. Whether you’re protecting leafy greens, strawberries, tomatoes, bedding plants, ornamentals, or turfgrass, this molluscicide delivers dependable results while minimizing crop contamination.
Its professional yet user-friendly design makes it suitable for both commercial farms and home gardeners across the UAE.
