Does anyone on growsonYou live in Gloucestershire?

When it rains and the slugs come out, I give them fish food or weetabix! Works a treat and fills them up!

Do you mean they 'then' leave the plants alone ???

I think there are some member in Gloucestershire .... Valadel does, i think.

It would be quite interesting to have an area on GoY to show the counties that members live in .... like they do on the I Spy A Bird (sister) site.

Thats interesting,lulu,as although I don't have many this year,I know exactly where to look...on the ground under the bird feeders,where they have dropped them.You may have got something there...

So they do BA but maybe not kibble with fresh mince! I saw a slug eating fallen rose petals today, well, at least not my salvias!

I think they're quite cute, can't kill the little blighters, and apparently lots of them just clean up, like your fallen petal eating friend. I haven't had much of a problem with them so far this year:-)

They have totalled my Hostas! Hostas in pots next year with copper tape around them!
I can't kill them either!!
