This is war
« on: July 23, 2019, 19:42 »
The slugs n snails seem to of multiplied and nibbling my crops  :mad:
I just put a pot of Basil on the go covered it in organic slug pellets, sprinkled them around the pot and blow me a plant has been nibbled.

I have decided no mercy so came up with salt bands (no copper around)
secured some tape around the pot with the sticky side facing out and sprinkled salt around them.
Fingers crossed, I have yet to see a slug or snail like salt .

I would just stab them, but now have handy toads and a hedgehog.
Look for small pearl eggs in the soil.

Aidy. We almost live in the same area so Mr. Superslug has either come from me or come from you.  >:( I'm going to sprinkle a bit of salt around where their trails are and hope to get a pic tomorrow!
I work very hard so don't expect me to think as well.
