drunk squirrels?

Talkback: Slugs and snails

attract a resident hedgehog (I am awaiting delivery of a hedgehog lodge) to help in the battle against the blighters and to help me keep what sanity I have left!! An American friend uses a solution of ammonia and water and 'hits slugs like a squirt gun'. I by ginjosie

Grass snake in the pond HELP !

to hear fledglings squeeking away at our feeders and the awe of a sparrowhawk catching lunch. The only sadness is no hedgehog for 2 years .We have just about everything else visiting us, we are so lucky! This thread reminds me of the lovely poem written by Bored with Bindweed !

slug pellets

Any good deals on slug pellets at the moment I need them by the bucket load!!! Do you have a Wilkinson's near you-got a carton for a £1 last week Please don't use them. Birds and hedgehogs will eat the corpses and then die. Try barriers like sand by weejenny
