Not heard of this particular idea but sure it will work as slugs will try and avoid going over anything spikey/scratchy. I use manure extensively...
I knew we wouldn't get away without having a humdinger of a frost and we hit the jackpot last night /early this am.For days I've been expecting...
:):):):) It looks even colder in Clapham (or do you pronounce it Claam?) than where I live @JackJJW, unbelievably. I have been on GC quite a lot...
Poor you @longk . What with this and your iris being munched you don't even need the frosts to cause havoc! Before my camera died I took photos of...
Camera needs batteries charged but will get one in the next couple of days. So pretty, didn't know the slugs liked it, now forewarned!
Cheesed of as only Wilkos we have is a good hours drive away and in the middle of a covered shopping centre so can't get you car close. Went once,...

Afraid I am not a great believer. I tried Chiropractors, Osteopaths and even some crank who played Whale music to me to try and relieve the pain I...
Glad your laptop hasn't died. Mine decided to leg up the other day too. Friend of husband is a computer geek and took mine away with him after a...
I'll keep my fingers crossed that your crossing on the Sea Cat doesn't produce a case of mal de mer @Sheal:). Took photo today of our 1st...
