Put down a saucer or saucers of stale beer for them; they say it works! (Personally, I'd rather drink the beer... )

Re: Building an ark


You're all getting away from the Ark theme and leading me to believe you would not let 2 slugs on board - shame on you. Tut Tut

Re: Building an ark


Seriously, they're not a problem here in my part of the country. I've been gardening most of my life and have never seen a snail! We do have slugs, but not very many; I rarely see one, just the occasional slimy track in the flagstones or sidewalk.
