I am really surprised: The worm rotten in packs before my raised bed together - and make it easy up not because they make two strips of copper tape in the way! Had I used to constantly collect the snails and annoyed me anyway nibbled on salad leaves, this trouble is omitted and now my salad now belongs only to me. :-) The band itself was very easy to apply and adheres to now rock solid on my raised bed (it is made of aluminum). I have attached the two strips at a distance of approximately 5 cm and it seems my raised bed alone so "screw safely". I would buy more copper tape at all times, so it can highly recommend it.
