slug and snail control
I am brand-new to the group and not very knowledgeable about roses (yet),
but I do know about slug control. As many have suggested, beer in a very shallow pan will attract slugs, the climb in, and are killed by the SALT in the beer. you could try putting salt around any plant you don't want to have violated, but I have NO idea what the salt would do to the plant you are trying to protect. Another very good idea is to take broken egg shells and place around the plant in question. When the slimy little beasts try to get to your plant, they slice their little bellies to shreds, and will avoid the area in the future. I have seen this done successfully. -- JJMolvik "If you're gonna be stupid, you'd better be lucky!" |

slug and snail control
If you remove snails under rocks, leaves, containers, etc. early in the
season, you will cut down on their population drastically. love caryn "Come into my garden, my flowers want to meet you!" |
