slugs and doodlebugs/roly-polys


     Hi Linda,
     
     I know this is not Organic but...
     I put liquid snail bait on the boards that edge my beds.  I just dab 
     it along the tops of the boards according to the directions.  I'm 
     hoping this helps keep the poison away from my dirt (and worms).  It 
     does get the snails!
     I don't have an answer for your roly-polys.  They love my strawberries 
     nearly as much as I do.

I really like the neat, well-kept look of wood around the squares, but have
a question - does anyone have problems with slugs and doodlebugs/roly-polys
getting underneath them?  I have some old boards that would work well for
the job, but have already noticed that if they're lying flat on the ground
they become havens for garden pests.
