As an keen conservationist, I'm horrified that you lot are still chucking metaldehyde slug pellets around as if they were going out of fashion. It wouldn't be so bad if song thrushes, hedgehogs, frogs, and toads were not also killed, as they feed on the infected slugs. And even dogs have an affinity for the little blue pellets, and have been shown to suffer terrible deaths as a result. These things should be banned. Our wildlife has a tough enough time in today's countryside as it is, without you lot adding to the toll. You grow your own veggies so that you know where it comes from and that it is good & wholesome. But your poison your slugs so that the poor unsuspecting birds and animals with which you share your plot suffer a prolonged and quite possibly painful death. I urge you - please think again before buying this killer substance
