In small-scale gardening slug fences may also present a preventive possibility. Naturally, this possibility is only relevant when the area is quite small. The idea of the slug fence is to build a fence around your crop, with a little roof-eave pointing towards where the slugs are. The eaves of the fence have to be bended in an angle of 45−55° to prevent the slugs from crawling over the fence.
