I am trying out nematodes (sp?) for the first time this year. They are
tiny
parasites that live on slugs, and only slugs. As the slugs simply
shrugged and
s******ed at my slug pellets last year, and I'm worried
about the dog/baby
eating them (pellets not slugs, slugs are fine), I
thought I'd give it a go.
It's not cheap, so I hope it works, I've
already spotted a couple of tiny slugs
in the garden. Yuck. I hate their
munching slimy meanness.

Do you use them? How did it work out for you?

I'll update with what happens during the spring growing season, which is
when
slugs are the worst problem.

Hi, I started using nemaslug last year. Really, really impressed with
it. It is
quite expensive, but when you work out the cost of spreading
slug pellets over a
6 week period, it cant be much different and once
applied you can forget about
them for 6 weeks.

Overall I would give them 9 / 10 (I would give 10 if the price was a bit
lower)
anyway I found the cheapest place here:
www.nemaslug-slug-killer.co.uk

They list the cheapest nematode suppliers in order (cheapest first). I'm
still
waiting for my nematodes now, think they should be here any
day....
