Slugs--Ugh! Best Way to Get Rid of Them?

Day 3 results: While the slugs have stayed gone since I moved the planted container to a sunnier spot, other critters have now found it. Munch, munch, munch.

Yeah, I may have shrugged off @VikingKaj’s Bernzomatic suggestion too hastily.

So eat your fill while you can, slugs, rabbits, and deer. I have all fall and winter to plan for next year.

AKA “hasenpfeffer” and “hirschbraten”. Yum !

Snares work great on the rabbits, and if properly done do not alert the dnr or neighbors to your dinner plans.

By the way, as annoying as slugs, anybody has tips vs pill bugs?
This year as summer was hot, not much slugs, but tons of pill bugs, they were eating strawberries, seeds waiting for germination…young seedlings.

And at least here, slugs and pill bugs can be buddies hanging around together in the same place.

I saw a wild hedgehog near my home once, it was eating cat food people left for the kitties. Not sure this one would want to eat slugs anymore.
