Grow Your Own / Re: Slugs (again)
« Last post by Nobbie on Today at 12:33 »Another 75 yesterday and explored a few more places in the rain today and got 183. They really loved the clump of lupins I have, so cleared the rotting foliage from around the plants and picked lots off the plants themselves. Might even try planting some lupins as sacrificial plants to attract the slugs next year before dispatch. One at the end of each bed would be nice.
I’ll keep a close eye over the next few days as slugs will be very active in the wet weather and I’ve just planted out some tasty seedlings.

« Last post by Goosegirl on Today at 09:07 »Can it be due to some sort of mole or rat that's disturbed them as you didn't grow any pots there last year?
