Whenever the slugs and snails get too much, I apply a water soluable zapper liquid to sink into the ground and get the beggers at home. Cheers, Tony.

aaah the slugs are out!!!

Did pellets last year as don't have much in pots or raised beds. But didn't really put too much effort into keeping on top of the buggers.

Did toy with nematodes (sp?) but couldn't face the expense.

A neighboring allotment has tadpoles in a pond - hoping we have some fat frogs scoffing a few this year and will ofcourse work very hard on keeping slug hiding weeds to a minimum (ha!)
