Slug Control

Help, I thought what I had were slugs in my hosta gardens but they are snails and they are everywhere. They're eating everything not just the hostas. At the beginging of the season I put out slug bait, thinking I'd take care of this problem finally, wrong. It seemed to make things musch worse, what can I do to get rid of these slugs. They've taken control!

A: Slug bait is the best thing to control slugs & snails. Depending on the product, bait does typically have to be re-applied, so check the label. An excellent product I recommend is Sluggo. It's very effective, and does not have an attractant, so it is safe to use around pets. Also, it's made form iron phosphates, so it will bio-degrade without harming the environment.
