ABSTRACT:
A special stake like device preferably configured in one-piece of extruded-plastic material substantially in the form of an inverted J-shape. The inverted J-shaped portion remaining above ground, thereby forming a simple manner of cantilevered-awning protective of a poisonous substance held thereunder. The function being to provide an attractive molluscicide substance under the overhanging awning formation, where an attractive cozy shade recess serves to lure the snail out of the sun. The invention being essentially based upon the notion that once the snail has partaken of the fatal bait-substance, there is actually no need of further entrapment means for effective extermination, thus a device of minimal size is attained. The device may be economically extruded with a single or double sided awning, while an alternate generic variant injection-molded umbrella like embodiment is also set forth. In the latter embodiment, the inverted J-shape is formed continuously into a circular station to simulate a mushroom appearance, operating essentially like the planar version but virtually in the round, so as to attract equally from all directions.
