Is it organic?
If you want to be happy for a short time - get drunk.

If you want to be happy for a long time - fall in love.

If you want to be happy forever - take up gardening!

My blue slug pellets kill 'em dead but I always make sure that the beds are netted so that hedgehogs can't eat the slugs after.   :)
what if they crawl outside the net before dying?

I've seen less slugs & snails than usual. Am I being too optimistic in hoping that the very harsh winter might've done many of them in this year? Or are they just hiding somewhere and amassing troops for a targeted assault on my salad leaves?  :unsure:
