Default I think I'm becoming a gardener!

You're a gardener, no question about it. Welcome aboard.

Just one flaw in your reasoning. You will never win the battle of the
dandelions, or the slugs/snails come to think of it. However there is no
reason you shouldn't enjoy yourself trying. Don't feel guilty, there'll

be
plenty more. And not using pellets is also frog friendly.



Goody, I've got them too. Will they eat the slugs?


Yes, slugs are their favourite. They won't eat all of them, but you can't
have everything. Pellets poison the slugs, and then if frogs eat the slugs,
they get poisoned too :-((

Rough guide to what's in the garden - Slow is bad
(slugs/snails/caterpillars), fast is good. (beetles/spiders etc)
