Possibly having them overhead, as in the illustration, would help. Out of interest, what stops the ring sliding down the pot? Is it a friction fit? |

First snails appeared earlier this week. I have a reliable late night slug despatch method which involves a small bucket of heavily salted water and a can of lager (has to be a can as glasses are difficult to hold at the same time as the bucket handle). Waiting for the prickly despatch method to arrive - they're late this year. Thrushes take care of the snails. |
