Kerry---- thats a very good idea to hit them with a club....But unfortunately
the wife wont allow drunken party animals in the house to use the toilet and
also some of these slugs are non-beer drinkers. Then you have to worry about
the slugs that carry there own clubs..ha haBut in all seriousness...These
creatures are back every night and eat, flowers, tomatoes, pepers and any
kind of plant they can bore into,
so if anyone has any other ideas please let me know..One other thing, its
really an adventure walking in the grass at night with the squishing under
your feet.
