    So have I. But every morning at 6 o'clock I still walk through the pellets and boot kill the slugs. They don't struggle to swallow the lilies.

    Do you see those large chewed bits in the photos? Apparently your slugs are not that upper crust. Scarborough of course is famous for its coal mines whilst Poole is famous for its pots. I rest my poor old working class case.
