Slug control products still selling well
 
Gardeners are still battling to keep slugs and snails from destroying their plants, prompting a surge in sales for preventative products like Vitax Slug Gone, which has jumped to No 12 in the GTN Bestsellers Garden Products chart.

In total there are four lines in the top 20 – the others being Bayer Bio Slug & Snail Killer (No 9), Scotts Slug Clear Advanced Pellets (No 10), and Growing Success Advanced Slug Killer (No 13). Westland Earth Matters Slug Blocker Granules are also in the chart at No 34.

Recent windy weather has forced gardeners to support their flower and veg plants, leading to increased sales in Gardman Bamboo Canes, the highest climber with a move of 20 places to No 19, and Gardman Jute Twine, a re-entry at No 43.

Other notable performances include Woodlodge Pot Feet Large, the highest re-entry at No 28, and Westland Nutri Rose Food, the only new entry at No 46.

Creative Products Garden Sharp, Gardman Solar Coach Light Lantern, Westland Resolva, and Kaemingk LED Solar Garden Light were re-entries.

Scotts Levington Tomorite (1-litre) remains the bestselling garden product.
