Hi Phil,
           Sorry about the delay in answering you, I checked their web site tonight they supply two types of tape.

1 The normal copper sticky back tape is £6-95 for a roll of 4m x 3 cm.

2 the improved version also has a prickly line on one edge of the tape to further deter larger slugs and snails.
It is priced at £10-95 for  5m x 3cm and is supplied in two rolls of 2-5m tape.

If your order is under £20 they ask for a £1 handling charge.

the site address is http://www.organiccatalog.com/catalog/

PREMTAL,

Thanks for the info - I knew that it would not be cheap - I have Hostas in pots which are a min of 8". Those would work out at over £1 each - a lot more than a bit of a pan scourer.

Phil - how about smearing with vaseline? much cheaper - although you do occassionally have to reapply.

My wife did that some years ago and I can't stand picking up pots which leave my hands covered in gunge  :(
