The message

Is the slug thing a problem in all gardens? I think Rusty was
talking about
keeping them off the plants, not killing them? Maybe I have it
wrong. Does
the beer just kill them if you find them? How will it keep them off
if you are not on guard?


You bury a jamjar, plastic cup, w.h.y? up to its neck in the soil, and
tip in a little tipple.

Slugs then commit suicide in battalions.


So, you have tipsy slugs going to their maker in a jolly mood? Sounds all
right to me
