Hi all had a slug problem way back in 1994 They were decimating a quarter of an acre of daffodils. So one night at full moon I collected about 100 slugs /snails placed then into a container with about 2 litres of water and let them rot away  until the next full moon . I then diluted this mix one in 10 and sprayed 3 nights in row and repeated the exercise  the following month.
I started to harvesting this crop again in 95 and have been able to do so since with very little slug damage. It will be interesting to see what happens this year.

Hi Tony and all
There is a reference to decomposing insects for pepper in about the middle of lecture six - I'm surprised more people have not picked this up
