RE: 5 things I have done today to help the planet… [Day 010 – 24 May ’19]
Slugs are one of my biggest problems in the garden. The heat of the polytunnel seems to deter them. Otherwise handpicking seems to the most effective organic solution.
I do go on slug and snail hunts. I don't want to resort to poisons, but it can be frustrating when they eat young plants.
Slugs are nature's challenge ...
If only they were tasty. I could live off those in my garden. Do chickens eat them?
Some chickens will eat slugs - but I believe there is a potential danger of them getting some sort of worm from the slugs.
The Indian Runner Ducks I used to have loved the slugs.
