Default coffee for snails - Try wood ash

(Bpyboy) wrote in message ...
I had similar result with wood ash, but my delivery system was an old coffee
can that I drilled some 1/4" holes in one side, and sort of sift it around the
area. I don't know what it is, but the snails and slugs really seem to hate
that stuff.


I'm sure you guys have real wood ash, but just as a general warning to
all - Never use ash from those treated fireplace logs. The chemicals
are not good for you and the ash won't do any good.
