There should be some info on this in the archives but it is the
yeast that attracts the vile slug. Just put yeast and water in
the plate.
BTW, the beer in the pie tin didn't work for me even though I had
used a fairly expensive lager since that was all we had around. Maybe
they would have gone for 'Budweiser'.
