I am a city gardner in zone 5/6. Dramatic temp swings in this area with cold winters, and hot summers. Love to grow my own fruit and veggies!

What a great place for a dog to β€˜patrol!’ He’s got a great territory. 😀

@saco I think you could that yes. I think 🤔 I’ve got the whole worlds population in my garden ☹️😫 I’ve tried all sorts and the blighters still come back. I think I must have all the other pests in my garden too. It’s a constant battle. I love all the plants that snails 🐌 and slugs like to munch holes out of. I can’t put pellets down as I have hedgehogs 🦔 living and breeding in my garden. Otherwise I’d go pellet crazy 😝🤪

Try beer, thats what i use for slugs @pixierose and it does a worthy job. A bowl with beer set in the garden at ground level near all problem areas, the cheaper the better, enjoy the good stuff for yourself. They drown themselves in it overnight.

@saco I’ve tried beer and they avoided the traps. I’m sure they are doing it on purpose lolz 😂

Hmmm, I don't do poisons either, maybe those hedgehogs can start pulling their weight and munch down those pests for you!! @pixierose

@pixierose neem oil may keep them slugs away too

No, its still early enough to split for sure, the spring ground is still soft. Loosen beneath the grown foliage, with careful shovel placement and they'll be fine!! @gjones
