The v.T.H. Patent Slug Trap 



"D^ lar the niiist simple and eftui^tive iiiclti-ti ut riddiuL; gardens 

 ^ of Slugs. Woodlice. Weevils. Beetles. Wire- worms, I,e.ithcr 

 la. kcls, and other Garden I'ests, This trap is a va^t improvement 

 on the well-known j'ralie's Patent, which has in consequence hcen 

 withdrawn from the niarliet. The bait-tray is removable, much 

 Us> bran is required, and the lid prevents the bran beconiiiig damp 

 and sodden, whith rendered l"ralce's Patent useless in wet weather 

 ulieii Shi^s are most active. Slugs are attracted from aconstder- 

 alile dislanix- by the smell of bran, and falling into salt and water 

 are instantly killed. More than 2)0 Slugs and many more wood- 

 lice have been destroyed in one imp in a single night. The traps 

 are ]>ainted and by no means unsightly ; full instructions with 

 ea.l. trap.

Hiall C. Baker. Ksq., Almondsbury. writes - 



"My j;arden is invesled with Slugs, and. in the past, I have 

 nt niiuh i>n labour and various [■rciiarations with the most 

 ilTerenl results. A'07£' T am glad to say the parts of the garden 

 protected by your tra[is are practically immune. Emphatically 

 \«>']r trajis ;u-e no mere garden toys ; tbe\- are, in my opinion, not 

 niib, the best, but the only .satisfactory defence oflered." 



The Veil, the Archdeacon of .Monmoulli writes- 



" Last year I bought twelve of your Patent Slug Trajis which I 

 fr.inid •singularly simple and effective, nothing comparable with 

 iIriii has. to in\ knowledge, been offered to gardeners " 



The Kl(iht Hon. .1. Lloyd Wharton writes— 



•■ 1 he traps duly arri\ed al IJramham. My gardener set one in 

 a melon house; the result was an extraordinaiy catch of woodlice: 

 this, I take it, is a new success for }0ur excellent trajjs '*
