TOP TIP TUESDAY
Stop slugs in their slimy tracks, with these three organic slug and snail deterrents:

Beer traps: Use a bespoke slug trap or a pint glass, filling it one-third with beer (ideally ale not lager). Partially bury the trap, leaving at least 1cm above the soil surface to stop other creatures falling in. The slugs will drown and can be added to your compost heap.

Calcium spray: Spraying plants with a protective calcium chloride solution, seems to deter slugs and snails, while not harming any other wildlife in the process.

Copper rings: Slugs will not move across copper, so, by placing a copper ring around emerging shoots you will enable them to grow without being eaten. Bear in mind that, as the leaves grow, they may flop over the copper ring, and be eaten. Slugs (and snails) may also climb other plants and drop down onto the young shoots, to avoid the copper.

What are your most effective methods of deterring slugs?
