Maybe we'd all end up with lungworm, or metaldehyde poisonong?
Thanks Walnut. I am woefully ignorant about insects. Some time ago I think I remember Hornbeam recommending a book on British insects, or...
The bark from shops is usually alkaline not acidic. It has no greater virtue part rotted that I know about, and certainly loses its longevity as a...
Found this elegant little fellow in S.E. Wales over the weekend. He's about 4 or 5 cm from tip to tip of the legs, so really quite small. Anyone...
Let us know how it fares. I have wanted to grow Colocassia for a while but have been put off by its supposed lack of hardiness. I hope it comes...
Looks like I've only got the slugs to battle it out with then :rolleyes:
My opinion is it is a truffle or it's relative from smell ( and yes I can tell the difference Pete!) and habitat. It is above ground though, so...

Although I cannot recall where currently due to [img] I have read a fair bit of further info on slug idents and their habits. I really do think...
Try an aquatic centre at your local Garden Centre. Also Maidenhead Aquatics seem to have expanded in the S.E. Don't know if they get up to your...
Now look what you've started Royster!Weed mats available all over the place. Small bits in B&Q etc, larger amounts from many places. Best to...
What about salt? If you've got as far as finding the things then obviously you won't need your pellets; why not chuck them into the bin, stomp on...
Oh dear...
Oh, I understood that it was the dehydrating effects of the crystals on their skin. I thought that was the mode of action on the slugs as well.
Well Fancy, it was Auntie's post I was replying to and he was worried about the implications of using aluminium and iron for the soil.The...
