Ok so I got my son to bring in all my tom plants tonight as I am going to keep them in untill the evenings get warmer and I just checked on them (like you do all admiringly) and there it was bold as brass a SLUG! I mean the cheek of it grrrrrrrr Needless to say it is no longer there soon booted the * back out!

[Paul Plots]

Most decidedly horrible... 

I've not had much experience of slugs munching tomatoes... but I guess that might have a nibble given the chance 

[Aunt Sally]

You mean it's out side waiting for the tomatoes to go back out tomorrow  

[Loubs]

Well spotted though, otherwise all you'd've had by tomorrow morning'd be a load of stalks!

[Paul Plots]

You mean it's out side waiting for the tomatoes to go back out tomorrow  

How do you mean it? There'll be millions of them lined up now it has escaped to tells its mates   

[fallen angel]

Lol I can't help it I don't like killing anything although I have bought some pellets as I feel thats more me protecting food than killing lmao

I have visions now of opening my back door to a wall of slugs ha ha

[Jamie Butterworth]

Its what every gardener has nightmares about 

[Aunt Sally]

You didn't want to kill it ?

You didn't mind throwing it out away from it's tomato supper to starve though

Pre-arm yourself with a pot of salt before venturing out especially at night.....

Lol and Aunt Sally there are plenty of weeds in my lawn for it to munch on just not my veg ha ha xxx

Ah that's what im doing wrong i should be eating the grass not the veg    Kill it before it kills your veg. Scissors chop them in half really well and you can wipe the murder weapon clean in a jiffy.

[darthpaul]

Do scissors not make a horrible slimey mess! 

[Rangerkris]

Depends on how big the slug is, but leave it for its mate's to see and that works wonders

One thing's for sure, slugs will never make it onto the endangered species list.
