I can't say I am impressed to be honest. I'm still picking them out of the house, off their food, and all the flowers

Ducks LOVE snails and slugs but not good for you and where you live. How about putting some copper wire down:they don't like to touch copper. You could put it around the food and water dishes as they attract the peskies. Upturned orange peel with some tasty beer underneath in a small jar for them to drown in.

Here in Spain you can buy cream to put on cuts and grazes etc that is made from slug/snail slime as it's apparently very good at healing. Sooooooo------there may be an opening there for you poor people with bucket loads of slugs and snails-----don't drown 'em in salt water-------harvest their slime!

Last night I went to check on my torts. They were staying out as the temps were sure to be very mild. One of them was sleeping soundly with a large slug on his head. Yuk! I flicked it off.

i dont usually get slugs in the sheds fortunately, but do find a few slugs on their feed ing slates and around that area, they are really iritating, i might have to invest in a crate of beer! but what a waste, maybe i will drink 3/4 of a can first then put a shallow dish of beer out every morning, if i find my girls staggering around, i know they have been on the beer ha ha x
