We placed 8 slug traps throughout the garden last night. We will be adding more. We put one can of beer in each. I checked this morning and they were all full of drowned slugs. Hundreds died last night.

I’m impressed. You’ve got a system that works, and any rain doesn’t dilute your bait. And, you have an excuse to buy beer.
I guess slugs don’t hear or heed the drunken screams of their dying fellows.Posted on 27 May 10 (about 3 years ago)

Well, can’t throw them in the compost or leave piles of pickled slugs in the garden, so we decided to empty them into a 5 gallon bucket and dump them in our field. I personally think they should go right at the break in the hedge where college kids sneak in at night to drink beer. It would be fitting.
