Hi to you in Bolton,
I was originally from Prestolee just outside Bolton before I moved to Australia 23 years ago.
I miss the seasons and the moors but not the rain. Goodluck with your growing.

Hello and Welcome.
I have an ongoing slug problem here too, I hear they like Hostas. My kids are grossed out at the sight of them.
Enjoy your stay.

Re: Hi from Bolton
Bonfires are also good for slugs as they explode or atleast the ones who made the wood pile their home did. Frogs are also good slug eaters
