I know this is not a garden Question, but you may be able to
help.
My daughter is having problems with little black slugs in the
kitchen.
Anyone know how to rid?

Late night visits with the salt cellar!

I've wondered about making up a salt solution (in water) and
spraying areas
and plants affected with that.
Anyone tried it?

Yes - in my very first garden when I was 18........I had some lovely
French beans coming up which were being decimated by slugs, so I went
out and sprinkled salt on the ground and the plants.Two days later
they were totally dead - both the slugs and the bean plants!
