when you sprinkle salt on them they turn to foamy goo!

the very best defense though is a Muscovy duck usually quack-less
and they will eat every single one.

other than that, you have to go out at dark with a flashlight and salt them as you see them

diatomacious earth has silicon spears from dead marine life that is good for puncturing flies , but i don't think it's that good for slugs.


Will set-up the beer traps tomorrow. Had not planed on going the salt routine but went out today and found ALL my emerging corn plants wiped out.
I'm taking this personal....SALT
