I shall start to get seriously worried if I come across any freshwater mussels attached to my beans, but I suspect that it's only a matter of time. Regards, Nick Maclaren. I have some very cheeky ones in the raspberries. If you look closely you can see they've been nibbling the fruit. -- http://www.voucherfreebies.co.uk |

Slugs are only a snail without a house. |

I must admit, I'm not too bad with snails, but hate slugs. I think it helps that snails have a grab-hold so you don't get covered with goo. And they have quite attractive little poking-out-of-their-shell antennae and stuff. Slugs are just a little ball of yuck. |
