Them slugs! They’re back! And fat too! On my to do list… Buy lots of Sluggo.

It started with how I almost killed my dogs. And the wild birds. And the cat across the street. I bought some ‘old English formula’ and literally caused a snail genocide in my yard, but seeing all the dead snails and slugs got me to re-read the label. Also kills dogs, children and wildlife.

After that, I spent days researching organic means to killing the S+S (snails and slugs). It is a very long story, and somewhat humorous, as it does involve beer, torture and chickens. (To read more about this, click here)

Now to Sluggo, what I’m supposed to be talking about. It’s iron-based and non-toxic, so it doesn’t harm the environment, the dogs or the wildlife. The S+S eat the stuff, are fooled into thinking they are full, crawl back to their quarters and die of starvation. I know, it sounds cruel. (Until you hear the other methods, this is pretty nice, actually.)

Seriously, Sluggo works very well. Very easy to use and messy-free. I highly recommend it.
