I have heard of beer. If you put out beer in saucers, it will kill the slugs. <BR/><BR/>But aren't you afraid to attract rats if you put out egg shells? I had a rat problem at my last house. They loved my neighbor's compost heap. Then they discovered the birdseed in our shed. We had a lovely family of rats living under our front porch. Ugh. I can't stop shuddering from the memory. So now I don't like to put anything remotely resembling garbage in my garden.<BR/><BR/>Sorry, got a bit off topic. I just had to respond to the egg shell tip!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30512717.post-32234707201829034942007-05-03T14:32:00.000-07:002007-05-03T14:32:00.000-07:00I can't help it..."What's the story, morning glory...I can't help it...<BR/><BR/>"What's the story, morning glory?

In Washington state most things grow at that rate, and the whole environmentalist thing about not cutting down trees and letting things grow was incomprehensible to us, who were being smothered by blackberries, morning glories, and whatever else was growing. (and the slugs that lived underneath them.)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
