What customers say
Customer feedback on this granular repellent highlights a clear trade-off between natural composition and consistent performance. Many users appreciate the product's use of essential oils like cedarwood, valuing its safety around children and pets over harsh chemicals. This group reports immediate success in deterring garden snakes, finding peace of mind. Conversely, a significant number of reviews express frustration, noting snakes easily cross treated areas. A major practical concern is longevity; the granular formula requires frequent reapplication, especially after rain, impacting convenience and value. While the natural ingredients are a benefit, the inconsistent effectiveness means this repellent is viewed as a situational solution rather than a guaranteed preventative measure.
