A Simple Slug Trap: This Device Should Be in Every Garden
A very simple method of dealing with annoying pests, which looks good against the background of other clever traps.
To protect the area from slugs, you will need one item. A trap for pests can be made from bricks.
You don't have to crush the slugs manually with a brick. It's enough to place the "device" correctly next to the garden bed.
One of the edges of the brick should not fit tightly to the ground. It is necessary to leave a small gap.
Experienced summer residents have pointed out that in hot weather slugs become greedy for cool shelters. A brick becomes that very shelter for them, which is also next to the cabbage.
You just need to check the brick for pests from time to time. Once they are hiding in the shelter, it remains to destroy the slugs.
By the way, these pests can be attracted to the site by ornamental plants. For example, hosta, delphinium, dahlias, lilies, marigolds, zinnias. Slugs also like lupine, which summer residents often use as green manure.
