Default How much beer does it take to drown slugs?

You cant beat snail pellets, but if you really want to get them with
beer buy your own. Its terrible you should have to steal beer and give
it to undeserving snails.

Hubby's not all that happy about me swiping the stubby out from under his

1/2 inch beer lying under an old cabbage leaf for days and, though there
seems to be some sort of blobs in the bottom, there's still many big fat
very much alive slugs in my garden!
Am I skimping on the beer?
BTW ... slaters don't seem at all interested in it.
