Re: Slugs and stuff
CapeGoddess - IDK if expired yeast would work or not. It has to be "active". Try it. You have nothing to lose.
My mind gets kind of weird at times. When I dump the beer/yeast pans morning and evening I have this vision in my mind of slugs rushing to the pans shouting "Beer Party."
They really are sots.

So do you do this when plants are getting completely decimated? I get some damage, but I think it is pill bugs, on radish seedling, etc.
