Slug on my windowsill

Cosimo · 3 Dec 2009 at 09:19

Just leave it be, it thinks it's still summer. Little does it know that the cold weather will get it.

The last slug that wandered unescorted around our house found its' way into the nice warm, damp snake tank.

And got eaten

I keep finding slugs in my kitchen, but cant see how they have got in at all. I found one in the middle of my kitchen and thought i could track its slime trail back to where it came from but the trail stops a few inches away from it, like it teleported :eek:

.

There is nothing worse than standing on a slug bare footed

.

I used to just put them outside but now i throw them as far as i can and listen for the satisfying splat sound.

Kill it with spam.

Over a month's worth.

Christ, a 2cm slug? Its the end of the world as we know it.

But it's his world. His entire world. It stops at the window sill.

sad.

make a maze with walls of salt and put it in the middle. See if it can find its way out without turning to slug juice.

This is a fine idea my friend:

I seriously did think of that myself there

Seems someone else did too.

lol funny thread and that pic (post26) is really funny

If it were me, I would just scoop it up and chuck it outside.

Sorry for being a "n00b"but what actually happens to a slug if you pour salt on it?

You could always employ the tactics UB40 used when faced with the quandary of "There's a rat in my kitchen, what am I gonna do?" Of course, change 'rat' to 'slug' and 'kitchen' to 'bedroom'.

I believe they ended up "fixing that rat" and by 'rat' I mean 'slug'.

Good day.

It turns to liquid.

Seriously, try it.
