Slug baits

Post by thy »

Remember to spread them here in the spring...

It is raining :D :D :D

Start of May and I have seen grass here that have turned yellow.. we got so much rain last months last year, but since we have been lacking rain...
Please look.. I am from Denmark.. a tiny country with a latitude of mid Canada :o

I started to give water late Marts.. felt like a idiot

First roses are budding out 1½ month too early, hostas have beeen unfurled in the sunny part of the garden for long.. just starting in the shaded... my sun is low this time of year.. part, there have always been some weeks between them, but never more than a month.

Gave the garden slug baits more than a month ago, they were extremlý active and in the last weeks I have found a lot of dead snails(houses) on my trees.. they all seams to have dried out.. does slug baits do that or is it the drought.. the houses are very decoative... but ..... :-?

Hmmm..I don't know the answer to your question, Pia, but thanks for reminding me that I need to get out and spread some slug bait! I just got some a week or so ago! :wink:

Pia,

We've noticed a lot of dead snails here at our house in Canandaigua, New York. Maybe something happened to them with this very strange winter we had? Not that I'm sorry they're dead!
