Does anyone know who the culprit is here?

Slugs


By the middle/end of summer our
hostas leaves are all holey and eaten, looks like bugs (not animals) but
we don't know what is doing it or how to treat it.


Slug bait. "Bug geta" comes to mind.
Shallow bowls of beer. Bury the bowl so that the rim is at ground level.
Try spraying with hot sauce. I wonder how that would work in their slimy
slug bodies. beg


They've just come in nice and full so if there is something preventative
to do I'd like to find out. I'd prefer something natural over chemical.


Uh, forget the bug geta stuff.



We're in Long Island, NY - I think that's zone 6? (not positive - I'm a
total newbie in the garden!)


Google is a newbie's friend.
