The MOLD! The SLUGS! I can't take it anymore!!

[miss_jayne]

to get rid of slugs outside....crush up your eggshells and mix them in the soil.

sorry it's muddy, slimy and moldy. that's sucky.

sounds like you need some guineas we live in the river bottoms, so we were covered up in slugs, got a few guineas and aint seen but 2 since, our guineas love slugs

put some saucers with beer in them all around and the slugs will go in get drunk and drown.

Also in the furture (before the rain comes) mix 1 part milk to 10 parts water and spray garden with it. I know it sounds weird but it will help keep white powdery mildew and other molds at bay. spray soil and everything. but once you hae mold it does not halp as much.

For now get Organics Traditions pelted garden lime and spread everywhere it wont hurt anything and will help.

Good luck

ETA I Have Guinea Keets available lol

I suppose I shouldn't be complaining about the garden slugs because I have not tried the egg shells and beer even though I have heard they work!
But how do I do that to my beach chairs?! Those poor slugs met their sandy salty doom!!

....is it okay to put the guineas in with the chickens?? I don't know they sure are weird looking and seem loud!!

Sorry, I shouldn't be amused but it is kind of funny! It was always raining where I used to live but that rain was COLD! And my new home city is always sunny (ugh, one extreme to the other)! Ha ha.
