Slug Bait on Desert Rose

maxiquai
10 years ago

Something seems to be eating away at my desert rose leaves , I think it is slugs, as it been raining here alot. can I use Metaldehyde (the main ingredient in Slug bait) on my desert rose? Please tell me yes , because I dusted some on my plant out of frustration without consulting with the experts here.

Thanks
