Sizable ones, too. What a year! My wife put out saucers of beer for the slugs before we went on holiday for 10 days. On our return there was a nasty smell in the garden caused by decomposing slugs. My other half collects slugs in a bucket with a drop of water and some leaves and lets them decompose, then makes some evil smelling concoction that is supposed to be a homebrew nematode remedy. Walked home recently and on the approach thought it strange that the nearby farm was dung spreading in June,then thought it even stranger that missus was in the front flowerbed spraying a Honeysuckle scent aerosol when the area had some of the real thing growing. Turned out she had decided to spread some of her slug mix around only to have our neighbour complaining bitterly over the fence that her house stunk and who nearby was getting got their septic tank pumped out in the evening not twigging that the source of the pong was the watering can the missus was still holding.
