Thread Name: BS: Getting rid of snails
Subject: BS: Getting rid of snails
We were having our winter clean up of various plants today. When we removed a dead plant from a pot in the front garden we found it was covered in dozens of snails! I have looked up what to do with them and found lots of tints and hips here but knowing you Muddy lot are all keen gardeners and greener than a green thing in greenville I thought I would ask for advice here as well:-)

Now, here's a funny thing though. In the back we have lots of slugs. I have no problem at all dosing them with salt and pellets but somehow snails are a lot cuter and I can't bring myself to perform the acts of mass destruction I do with their unshelled cousins. Does this mean I am predjudiced against the homeless do you think? :-D

Cheers
