Since my wife and I attracted hedgehogs to our garden, we have been
almost slug and snail free. Pre hedgehogs, our hostas and other large
leaved plants were almost devastated by the blighters. Whilst we have
been watching, the most hedgehogs visiting on the one evening have
been eight - adult and young.
We provide them with two low bowls of rainwater and dried cat food
every night. Their favourite food provided by us is Royal Canin Fit
32. Our hedgehogs have expensive tastes, a small price to pay if it keeps
our garden slug and snail free.

So what's eating the slugs if you are providing the hedgehogs with luxury
food? ;-)
