Again, I have heard of no success with the copper strips, at least with the semi-slug. Very expensive and not long lasting. A friend of mine got copper sulfate crystals and is adding them to some paint to make a saturated solution, and painting it on their raised bed legs. Sounds like a really good idea, see how it turns out. As a reminder, spraying a strong solution of copper sulfate on legs of raised beds does repel the semi-slug, turns them bronze and makes them die.
