Default slug pellets?

how safe are they round veg?

I want to be as organic as possible but the buggers are just
everywhere.

TIA

Nicholas


Slug pellets are the only pesticide I use on the veg patch. I never found an
effective economic alternative.
After wiping out the majority of the population on the veg patch, I regularly put
pellets in the surrounding flower beds and base of the hedge. This "ring of death"
seems to work quite well and minimises the pellets needed around the veg
themselves.
