Default Slug alert..

Hi..

Last winter was no real winter and this summer is unusual
wet and monsoon-like means we have big brown slugs, slugs,
slugs up to 5"..

Well lost my tomatoes, my salad, several herbs and some
anual flowers and now they're just conquering the edges of
the buckets, barrels and summer ponds. Their next target
seem to be the emerged parts of the pond plants/aquaria
plants. That's enough now..! So how to get rid of these
invaders..?

P.S.: A ponder here gave me the tip to keep some big
crayfish and that I should feed them with slugs.. How do
you think about it..?

Thanks in advance..

===========================
Go to Lowe's or some other store and get those "slug baits." THEY WORK!
Follow the directions on the box and you'll get of 99% of them.
