Title: slugs attacking or birds digging up your seedlings?
Post by: David Dickinson on June 02, 2021, 11:34:24 AM
We may have found a solution. I say "we" because I bought them for my sister to try it out in Leeds. She is plagued by slugs . I saw these insect cages on the internet and bought a couple. Mesh around the sides and plastic on top which keeps out some of the direct rain.

The blackbirds here in Rome usually destroy half my seedlings as they dig for worms so I think I will get some for myself. They seem to be working. I will pick them up when I next visit Leeds. Avoids Brexit tax complications!
