slow worm saga
They have now been moved to their new garden, and I have plenty of snails and slugs for them! The compost bin is about half full, do I need to put some more material in there for the winter. i.e straw or ordinary garden compost? Ann |

I'm not an expert on this, but if you've moved them in situ as you say, I think they like what they have already. In your position I wouldn't do anything. Tina |

The bin they used to inhabit at our last site was a hot compost bin and was insulated on all sides and top with thick sheet polystyrene, seems it kept them warmer over winter so they didn't go dormant and kept eating our snails. Perhaps a cover to keep the warmth in and too much rain out? -- Regards Bob Hobden W.of London. UK |
