We had an extremely sudden and very cold snap last winter.

Perhaps they all got caught with their pants down, so to speak.

What's happened to the slugs and snails this year? I don't miss
them -
of
course, but where have they gone? We've only found a few and there's
no
evidence of the wholesale napalm effect of previous years. Can recent
campaigns have really been so effective? I doubt it.

Your first para answers this. It's been so dry and we've seen none here
but
just wait for a bit of rain. It's drizzling here, so I'll be keeping a
look
out tonight!

I've been having a good clearout in the garden today and have come across
a
couple of baby slugs and a few snails. There has also been evidence of
trails in my garden.

No doubt as soon as we get any rain they'll be back in larger numbers :-(
