Beer drinkers beware

OK, I said I wouldn't be quoting from the gardening book that Debbie gave me. I won't, but I will paraphrase a recurring statement.

Each month has specific sections; one is "Pests" which includes bugs, animals, and diseases. One of the recurring problems in the summer months is slugs. His recommendation: stale beer. Apparently there is something in beer that attracts them, but that's not the part that is interesting. He says you need to capture them early in the morning, "before they sober up and go home."

Remember that, all you drunkards out there! Especially if you are a slug :)
