"Is it not too early for them? I saw the first one in the garden today. Do you leave them one or try and get rid of them. They can lay up to 300 eggs each. I don't want slugs all over the place" Masala sauce, would that fettle them ? | |||

"I went out after dark with a headtorch a pair of salad tongs and a plant pot with half an inch of salt in it. Caught hundreds of the buggers. Into the pot they go, quick shake round, and tip out the mess at the end. Repeat over several nights and it really hit the numbers. " Gosh that sounds like one of those Hitchcock films ![]() | |||

"Stop being mean to slugs ffs I'll stop being mean to them when they stop eating my plants" Put yourself in the molluscs shoes (slime) for one second, sure you'd be eating away, left and right at all that leafy goodness! | |||

"I've decided to play noce, ha e a little chat and try and make them see sense and move out on their own accord. Explain everything to them and what the options are and see what happens. Hopefully they will be reasonable and realise the alternative isn't pretty. " Ages ago I saw something with Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall in it. He had a problem with mice, a couple came to his house and asked them very nicely to leave and they did! Maybe your slugs will do the same 😬 | |||

"Slugs don't like the taste of garlic, it also irritates their mucous membranes. There are instructions on Google how to make garlic spray (which deters aphids, caterpillars and beetles too). You basically crush garlic in water and spray it on your plants. It lasts up to a month in dry weather, but reapply if heavy rain. Harmless to wildlife too and very cheap." Thank you ![]() | |||

I did type the generic name of unwanted plants forgetting that it's a censored word 🤦 | |||

There's a reason that meat and foods have been marinated in these things for years, not just for flavour! I watched a video about turmeric and what it does to human parasites. Almost indicates that this cannot be accidental and more than likely generations of passed down knowledge. | |||

"Bitrex blue pellets used to be a thing, but not everybody wants to go down that route." There are Organic certified pellets, but I use them as a last resort. Try removing places they can hide, timber around beds, etc ... | |||

"I'm plagued by slugs every summer and i've tried the old type blue pellets and those wool pellets, tried picking them up late at night and putting them in salt(used to get 60 a night easily) tried beer traps, egg shells and copper wire and tape but i'm fighting a losing battle. There's a small wood out the back of where i live and its a breeding ground for the buggers. The neighbour infront of me has let her garden get over grown and full of junk so i get attacked from both directions and after a rain shower its like slug heaven in my garden. We used to have a few hedgehogs about but not seen any for about 10 years or so now and the foxes aren't interested in slugs now since a bloke up the road started feeding them chicken every morning. Its a never ending fight against the slimmy buggers" Put a thick layer of sharp sand round your plants. | |||
