    Hiya Fletch
    Thought I would say hello. I joined today too.

    This afternoon I looked at a fuschia I have in a pot and decided it needed a good feed and water. Brought it in the house and put it in the sink with an inch of water. Left it for an hour while I went and did other things. As you do. Came back and hey, wood lice and centipedes escaping all over the worktops and everywhere. Lovely. There's a tip in there somewhere ha ha:D

    Hi Fletch, I saw it was just you and me on last night, or rather this morning. I think I logged off about 1am so I missed your post. Welcome to GC, I hope to enjoy it. Anything you want to know about the jungle plants I grow just ask and I will do my best to answer.

    BM :D

    Hi painted lady, I've had that problem before too, usually if I'm bringing tender plants in for the winter. You come downstairs and there's slug trails on the carpet!! Eugghhh!!!
    Needless to say they all get a couple of days in the shed first now!

    Hi, Fletch, and welcome to GC! Fortunately I don't have the problem of slugs crawling in the house ... I have geckos coming in for the winter, and the summer for that matter! :D
