I'd like to know what everyone uses for slug control. Counted 53 of the beasts crossing my driveway heading for the garden this morning! I had no idea they were a herding animal.
They were all in a group and had evil little smiles on their slimy little faces.
Where I grew up it was hot and dry and a slug was this tiny little grey thing about 1/2 an inch long. Here on the west coast they range from 3inches to 8 inches or longer!
I have put beer out in spots (don't tell my husband!)and the
bowls are heaped with dead slugs the next morning, but unless I start my own brewery I could go broke...besides the dog loves beer as much as the slugs and he can't seem to leave it alone.
My Vedgies have never had the hint of chemicals on them or near them.
Any other suggestions?
