Hi,

Having grown runner beans reasonably successfull over the last few
years this year due to the wet weather ours are decimated.

We have tried plastic bottles and someone suggested copper tubing over
the bamboo canes, slug pellets and some gravel on the base of the
plant to no avail.

They are in a border next to a path, any suggestions please

I've just been round with some slug pellets, hopefully that will have done
the trick.
