OH NO slugs!!!!!!

Go to your local ag centre (Elders etc) and get a bag of coarse salt and sprinkle a 'border' around your plants. The salt will kill them but don't sprinkle the salt in a general area or too close to your plants as the salt will kill the plants as well.

thanks so much girls

Im off to my local hardware to see if I can get some sawdust.

maz. The sawdust is good for the compost as well if it's not been chemically treated. Possibly even find a sawmill around your way and ask if you can get some, they would probably give it to you for nothing.

I think you can sprinkle salt around the plants to deter slugs.
