slug control
"Jane Ransom" wrote in message ... In article , Mariann writes I have a wander in the garden every evening with a bucket ... put all the snails ans slugs I find in the bucket carefully and take them to the nearby field ...so far none has made it back ..as far as I know ... Some years ago someone on this group tried an experiment. He painted the shells of snails a conspicuous colour and then chucked them as far over his hedge as he could hurl them. They were back in the garden in a couple of days!!!!!! I suspect you are right and they come back ..there couldn't possibly be that many every night otherwise ... I don't really mind too much as long as they leave my nice plants and eat only the weed ...sigh... |
