What about Horse Tail (or Marestail)? Do you tink that this treatment would
work for this? I am fast coming aroun to the idea that I should just ignore
it, because last year I was having difficulty sleeping while I worried about
it. Not every night , you understand, some nights I worried about slugs.

HDRA have produced a very useful leaflet dealing with the prevention and
control of Horesetail - Equisetum arvense, aka Marestail, Pipeweed etc.

The publication also gives a recipe for horsetail tea, used by some
gardeners to strengthen the resistance of plants to fungal infections.

The leaflet is called HDRA Factsheet No.WC1 'Horsetail' and it can be
accessed at: www.hdra.org.uk
