    This is a good method as you dont have to even have to handle the Slugs which lets face it is the most yakky yukky thing us gardeners ever have to do yakky smily.jpg
    Don't like sharing me :ccheers:so I use Brewers Yeast mixed with warm sugared water instead of slug pellets, the slugs are attracted to the yeast mix- does the same job as Beer- even more wildlife friendly :) plus cheap n cheery and although the Slug pellets are contained still shudder at the thought of using or handling them even with gloves- just can't abide the smell :frown:
    and when its full just deposit it in the bin and replace :blue thumb:
