May Gardening Tips
If, like me, you have Hostas or Succulents in your garden or on the patio in pots they will have started to come through now and it won't take long before the slugs find and devour them!
As an alternative to the usual slug pellets try shallow dishes filled with beer, these are good traps for the slugs or even better, put bands of copper metal around the top of the pots or base of the plants (flattened strips of old copper pipe are ideal). This gives off a mild electrical charge which the slugs will shy away from. Plus sharp-edged grit around the plant will also help to deter them.
