Do they eat slugs?? Boy could my yard use them!!
I know of nothing that will eat a slug. Just pour some salt on them and they will melt into a puddle.

A farmer told me you can also pour beer into a shallow dish and it works like a trap. He said the slugs find it irresistible and they crawl into it and it kills them! I got plenty of beer so I should try this!

That will work unless you have other critters that end up drinking the beer.
A drunk watch dog doesn't do much watching.

Nice thing about falling off a pier is the chance of a broken neck is slim...unless you fall into a boat!

I found some stuff a year or two ago in a green bottle. Said something about slug pellets....
It works great. Poured some on my front porch and 24 hrs later there where 10 - 15 dead and dryed.
Not as much fun as the salt but very effective. And OH you can use Windex to do the same thing. I guess its the Amonia in it.?

I've never figured out why St Kitts doesn't have a bigger destination draw. Why do they lack in tourism??
Great pics Dave.Last edited on Sun Aug 10th, 2008 12:33 pm by seawitches

That was June 14, 2006. Very good conditions for red delight sunset!
Wide angle: (looks like it's from a movie!)
Strong telephoto:
8 hours later it's time to take a walk around. Senor Frog's has been closed over an hour and all the drunktards have left. The port is a ghost town!
