how can i stop my peppers being eaten by slugs, tryed slug pellets and bran but still being eaten, had 5 out of about 100 still loads of flowers but tis cant last for long now.
Use your search button - there are loads of threads about slug wars
If they are in pots you could try putting copper tape around the pots - it takes a brave and hardy slug to get across that stuff (they get a shock) - but make sure there are none in the pot already, obviously!
Otherwise you can't go far wrong with a night hunt. Should stop them in their tracks after 2 or 3 consecutive nights of going out and removing all slugs to a safe location (preferably, in my opinion, Slug Heaven)
Warning: I have a dangerous tendency to act like I know what I'm talking about.
