I tried that with the beer only i used a jar lid. too small maybe ? the ashes from my wood fire place seemed to work well. sand too. anything that would cut them i guess. I couldnt pick them either. they are very gross.

Never thought of it like that but yes, we need at least one. But we all know what happens to them when they get out of hand .

yes I know you'll do to me what you threatened to do to missfrog

try putting a ring of diatomasour earth around your plants.   Also another good trip take a pie pan (glass is best)  pour a can of  beer in it and leave in garden. Slugs will by pass your plants for the beer and then drown themselves in it.   Sort of like some people I know. 

Had some beer cans strategically placed around the garden last night but no takers!! Good beer down the drain and they didn't take the bait. Had put lots salt down though. They are going for the chicken feed that has been spilt during the day. We have had a lot of rain of late but quite warm too and they are loving it.
I'm hoping with how many we killed they are now at bay.

did you have the cans buried ?? IT needs to be very low to the earth so the little buggers and get to the goodies. Maybe even you polich would like beer soaked treats. Not sure if they could get drunk or not.

what plants do they go for ? mine are around the hostas . not too much salt to kill the plant as well. I have never used DE but everyone says its the best.

ok  won't breed her to bad she is a  beautiful thing.  

I've got a young roo who has twisted/bent beak. He's getting the chop though so he can't pass it on. It's ashame too as he's gold lace frizzle. Don't know how he got it, he hatched fine and it just developed. None of my breeder birds have it.

As I dont know any hookers I will have to take your word.

Why would that offend ? no hookers here !
