Slugs

A slugging we will go, a slugging we will go,
Heigh ho, the dairy-o, a slugging we will go.



Last night I put down some Corry's Slug and Snail Death around flowers slugs have been decimating lately. A total of about 6 cup fulls around the yard netted 40 dead slugs overnight. The slick trail they left as they tried to dimwittedly outrun the poison in their bellies demonstrate the tenacity of these little creatures. One of these trails was 15 feet long, down a bark-dusted hill and across the sidewalk.

Supremely satisfying for me.
