Does nemaslug control snails? Do snail do as much damage as slugs and is
there something which will work if nemaslug doesn't please?
thanks,

no, no and no except for thrushes (a Larsen trap to reduce the corvid
population will help the latter)

Outlook Express is worth precisely what you paid for it.


Sadly, many plants in my garden are testement to the fact that snails can do
an enormous amount of damage.

Especially to those tasty, tender shoots of young plants that you happen to
be hardening off..... (sitting the pots in a bed of coarse sand appears to
have provided a lot of protection, though).

Are hedgehogs partial to snails? If so, the Uist activists are welcomed to
send a few my way...

cheers
