Topic idea (or an idea for you to put on your To Read list, at least). I’m reading “Shakespeare’s Garden” . . . lots of great info.

Thanks. I’d never heard of that browser and until it gets at least a decent share of users, I probably won’t work to fix anything. Sorry.

Snails were a huge problem in the Redwoods. I’ll never forget the first year I was there I covered a cold flat with 8 x 12 tarp and when I flipped it over, it was almost completely covered with snails, lined up in rows, shell to shell.

Tried a number of the remedies . . . can say the worst one on the Weekend Gardener list was mint: it doesn’t work and once established is a bugger to get rid of because it is so aggressive and invasive. Beer works, but the smell of stale beer and rotting slug/snail carcasses is unpleasant. Also random animals will wander by, lap it up and barf on your driveway.

For me, the best multi-purpose solution was cocoa mulch. It fits the “scratchy things” category, looks nice, smells great and is a great cat deterrent (cats won’t use it for their bathroom).
