Nemaslug

[Acanthus]

Was going to take advantage of the free postage from T and M to buy some NemaslugWas until I saw how much more expensive it was than buying it from on-line retailers. Do garden centres/ B and q etc sell it, does anyone know? We were so overrun last year, I thought I'd give it a try.

It needs to be kept at a certain temp, so I doubt you will find it in any garden centres/shops like that. It also has a shelf life, unlike other forms of slug killer !

It needs to be kept refrigerated but even then it has a limited shelf life. Nematodes do work though although it is an expensive remedy.

I have been looking at these Im going to get some in about a month or so I will not be beat in my first year also have beer traps, pellets and a trusty pair of sissors

[Aberdeenplotter]

There is a minimum temperature at which nematodes will work. be wary of that and don't apply to early

Thanks for advice, will order later from interweb. Might be expensive but if it saves my plants, it's got to be worth it.

Yes mate thats exactly how I feel want to take home worthwhile veggies after the work put in at the plot I dont want to have slugs to demolish everything and get so disheartened and give up......not that I would give up but you see my point
