Default SLUGS and salt



Well i rarely see them, but see the damage they are causing. I killed
one that was about 4 inches long! But i am not picking them up. I
wanted to sprinkle a little salt on the dirt a foot away from the
water to kill the slugs as they go to the plants. Is that safe?

Jammer, how big are these critters?
If they are fairly small you can toss them to the fish for instant

fish food. I
used to not be able to pick up worms and slugs but since I have had

the pond I
will carry a slug across the yard and toss it in (my brother would be

so
proud!).
