Here's my latest video on slug control: coffee, eggshells, paprika, diatomaceous eart

25 years or so ago I thought I'd be smart and fried up some large slugs in oil and garlic. They were very meaty and not bad at all. But there was some kind of a bad feeling after that in my belly. Also I got to thinking about what the slugs are eating out in my back yard... cat and dog poop etc. So, seeing as how I've been playing around with slugs and electric fences for more than 30 years I have to rate myself as pretty stupid for that experiment.

Good think you fried them!

As a kid on farm we had a lake, two houses...grandparents next door and they had a son, my uncle, lived with them...he had Downs syndrome. Granddad bought ducks. We're having dinner, uncle walks around going to lake in shorts, bends over to tie shoes...here come the ducks!

We used to have ducks, never again, twice their own body weight a day and usually on a door step.

When I retired the first time in 1994, I went out every morning with a shovel and cut them in half. Counted them. Stopped at about 6,500 over about a 2 month period. I hardly see any of them anymore, maybe 25 per year.
