We originally developed SlugGetter traps as a decorative solution to protect our flowers and vegetables from destructive slugs in the wet rainforests of Southeast Alaska. We wanted something more attractive and durable than the homemade traps we'd been making from used cottage cheese and yogurt containers, but liked the effectiveness of traditional beer-baited traps. Prompted by the urging of our friends and neighbors who had been using our early versions, we soon resolved to help others enjoy the benefits of potent slug control with ornamental traps that would add charm and interest to their gardens. Through the reach of internet commerce, we've been helping gardeners across the United States, Canada, and Europe with safe, fun, and effective slug control since 2021.
