Now is the best time to help yourselves in the ongoing slug battle.

Tidyness and good lottie house keeping can help at this time of the year as well as in the growing season.

Clear any areas that are slug heavens,slide you hoe down the inside of you raised beds holding it at a slight angle and open up a small gap.Then dare I say it sprinkle a few slug pellets in the gaps you have created then push the soil back.

Look around for any likely slug hiding areas and remove them.IE old plant pots, sacks, poly bags.
Most important look under your lottie shed,not if your local hedgehog is in residence,and give it a rake out.

Place a few tiles on the soil and next time your on the plot lift them,you may remove a few extra slugs this way,and maybe even a snail or two. This warm weather may bring out the odd little snail who knows no better.  You may not see them about now but they are there somewhere. Find them and they will not be eating your produce next season.

Anything you do now will pay dividends in the coming season,then do your best to keep the lottie clean and tidy once your veg is in the ground.

You can not do much about your untidy neighbours but your example may help them to follow suit.
