Have you ever tried planting cloves of garlic all over the place. And if your garden is not too big, a good solution is to spray your plants with a garlic spray. Slugs hate anything with a strong smell.
It worked very well for me last year.

I must have mutant slugs because we are aspiring garlic farmers and there is garlic ...everywhere! They do fall for the beer traps though.
Thank you for the recipe, my mum was just asking me for one so she can spray her roses so I'll send her yours! :)
It's the world upside down, lol. Beer traps never work, while here in Belgium, we have the best beer in the world.
Maybe you should send your slugs here - they would probably love the beer - , and I will send you mine, since they don't like garlic... problem solved. ;0)
(Not that I would have many to send right now. Because of the drought, I only find two or three a week... )
