Question from Joy
I am wondering if you have any recommendations on how I might kill garden slugs naturally rather than using the pellets or other chemical options sold at stores. I have seen a couple of natural products online, but am not sure how well they work or if I might be able to make something at home that works just as well? Thank you.

Debra’s Answer
I used to live in Inverness, California, where we had giant banana slugs.
I kid you not, my neighbors used to just pick them up and saute them in butter and garlic and eat them (a local food!).
I would set out pie plates filled half-full with beer in the evening. That seemed to work.
Readers, your suggestions?
