How to Get Rid of Slugs Gardening Trick


I just wanted to throw out another cool tip I just discovered for gardening:

If you are having issues with slugs of any sort eating away at your fruits, veges, or plants - take a lid, ramiken, or shallow bowl and pour any type of beer inside.  The slugs are attracted to it but it kills them.  This worked in my garden overnight so now I keep a bowl out there always.

*Really awesome trick but kind of gross to go gather up your bowls full of dead slugs, lol.

  2. Thanks for the info, I've never heard of this trick. I had a few in the garden this year but not an overabundance. Unfortunately the garden is just about done with this little cold snap. I canned for the first time ever this year and can't wait to do more next season.

  6. I had no idea that this was a solution. Of course I agree that you might find it gross to throw out the bowl filled with slugs. But it is worth the results.
