I got fed up with stepping on slugs and snails when going out for a smoke in the evening, so I was quite chuffed with the number of bodies that there were after one liberal helping of their favourite sprinkles.
There was a fair bit of slime around some of the corpses. but I left them there thinking a bird or other animal might find them After a few days the flies did, masses of them.
So I cleared them up. Last year I had a butter tub and collected them in there, then stuck them in the bin on Bin Day. But that was a bubbling mass of stick within a day or two.
So what's the best way to get rid of them? I just put the current crop into the composter. I guess dead slugs are no more use for anything than when they are alive?
