Hey Molly, I have been spending loads of time in the garden picking off slugs on my flowers, petunias in particular, and am wondering if anyone can tell me the BEST way to get rid of these pests? I was really gttting into the picking off using playtex living gloves on my hands so not to touch their slimy bodies and then I read one slug will preoduce 500 more slugs! I need a better battle plan.

Hi K.! Here's a link with info:Slug Riddance Good luck. You need a better plan, definitely!

b4, I'm listening to Medved discuss the Dem candidates and their religious comments...He called Edwards "reptilian, scaley, and slimy." I don't think he cares much for Mr. $400 Haircut!

In SE Alaska, we used rock salt. It melts them.
