Abstract: A special stake-supported device preferably configured in one-piece of extruded-plastic material which, when mounted in the ground has an inverted J-shape. The portion remaining above ground, thereby forming a overhanging cantilevered-roof protective of an attractive molluscicide-substance, or bait where the cozy shaded overhang recess also acts to attract the snail out of the sun. Access to the bait for replacement purposes is provided by openings in the lateral edges of the portion remaining above ground. Liquid molluscicide bait can also be used to impregnate a fibrous material which is then mounted in upper portion. Further, flanges can also be positioned within the upper portion to provide a surface for mounting bait or bait impregnated fibrous material.

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.
