Critter control: trail and error number 1

Shallow bowl depressed in the garden to attract snails and slugs. Put apple juice in (didn't have beer handy) but it only attracted fire ants.

I've heard about stuffing some bread and water in an open pop bottle and putting that in the ground and it works like beer. I'll try that next.

Beer works well, but the gardener would rather drink it than share it. :)
