when i find one i take out the salt shaker and sprinkle some on them demons. i also put out slug traps. them damn things will kill your plants. gardens are lots of work but come harvest time it's all worth it.




Please, can't you just kill them in a more humane - I mean, in a less painful way? Even as a child I was considerate enough to put the garden slugs onto a hard pavement and then kill them with a fast and decisive foot movement. It's a bit of a mess with the leftovers, but at least they don't have time to suffer. The other humane way is to place cups filled with beer in your garden. They'll get into the beer cup and then drown, hopefully too drunk to notice.





i use slug traps with the beer but i hate to waste a good beer on a slug so i use old Milwaukee.




and like the fister said...they're just slugs. they must die and i have no pavement near my garden so i just salt them like french fries. you gotta do what you gotta do.

now mice on the other hand...
