Some slugs eat dead vegetation, some eat live plants, some even eat
other slugs. They are difficult to control; if you haven't noticed
damage to your plants, stop worrying. Trying to eliminate pests ""just
in case" may cause other problems.

Slugs do damage to plants, I use the slug bell,it's efficient and
attractive ( lots of different patterns and colours) it works for a long
time as it's completely waterproof too.


I tried that nemoslug thing and it worked very well.


Halleluia! We have a convert! Yes it *does* work well and I do wish
more peoople would give it a try.


It was really odd using it because there was no slug damage for weeks
and weeks and then slowly I noticed some tiny slugs appearing again...
and realised just how fantastic it'd been. Was incredible to put
squash plants out and not have them eaten!
