Jacinta's Journal

Oh ! that is so cheeky but he was going to have a feast and he would be a gonner anyway.

Aw jesus Jacinta he's so cute would you not release him into the wild! :-)

the cheeky little fecker

Jacinta, are they slug pellets I see in the flower pot? Would they not be injurious to birds?

I have been on the hunt of these little 'feckers', using holly leaves, eggshells, and grit. This year i have used them all and recently introduced little pots of beer with an flower pot cut in half covering it, and its working a treat. I was told they are also partial to a drop of wine BUT theres never any left in the bottle!!! They sure love their beer!!!!

Dick, not the way I use them,. The slug pellets attract the slugs/snails and kill them. Then I dispose of the bodies so birds can't get at them. All's fair in love and war!!!!

Although the one above was hail and hearty. I squashed him underfoot.

like i said in your hosta post during the week, slug heaven!

The little has no hope with the blue lads
