Me and Mr Toad are best friends...

I have been making a nightly patrol to collect slugs for months now, tonight the pumpkin plant ( normally subjected to a withering attack of slugs from the long grass and hedge) is completly free of slugs, and none anywhere near it. However there is a family of fat toads there now. 3 of them, being my best mates and patroling the perimieter of the pumkin and presumably consuming the problem for me

My tip for getting rid of slugs , attract a toad, or preferably 3 of them.

That's great! It is wonderful when things like that happen.

I have a real glut of toads, lift virtually any stone and there is one nestling beneath it ... I'll ask them if they'd like to relocate if anyone would like :)

Post your offers of luxurious slug infested accommodation ...

the problem is we have lots of newts and toads.... *because* we have lots of slugs..

I'll offer a garden with a small pond and plenty o big fat slugs for a toad! In fact, i have a great green house that he can spend his nights in - its unheated and there's plenty of dark spaces - and a massive great fat juicy slug (it must be by now considering how much its eaten!) that keeps hiding from me!

We've just installed a pond on our lottie & are in the process of researching the best way to attract toads, which we know are on the site, to our plot.

I know toads only require the pond for breeding, so we need to create some nice dark places for them. There are certainly plenty of slugs...

...a nice big pile of rocks works for my toads
