Just Kidding!!! Hi Shade ( Snow )Gardeners!!!
>Speaking of garden critters. I was paging thru a catalog from "Carlin"
a
>horticultural supply house: E-mail carlin@execpe.com ), on page 154 I
>found a reference recommending " Ultra Fine Oil " for slug control. On
>page184 it describes the "Active Ingredient" as " Paraffinic Oils ".
It
>is probably the same as Volck/superior/horticultural oils sold as other
>brands ??? Has anyone had any experience with these products for slug
>control? Has anyone used it on Hosta?? An intriguing Idea! Especially
>for those who have had problems ( Robyn Duback) with more toxic products.
>I think this is a product that 'Organic' gardeners rate as acceptable.
