Sheep it or Slug gone

Pentillie

Has anybody used the above, which are recommended as a slow fertiliser, but also has the added bonus of being an irritant to slugs and snails who apparently dislike the wool content of the pellets. Is it effective? Would welcome any comments.

quite contrary

I tried this last year on my allotment and it didn't work against the slugs and snails and it was very smelly
