Rain, did someone say rain!!! I HATE rain, I used to like rain, not anymore!! I have SLLLLUUUUUGSSS! I so absolutely detest them things, and these guys are not picky, no, they eat everything!! We have had so much rain I found a frog outside my door the other day wanting IN!! Scared the heck out of me too, I nearly stepped on him!!
So, back to the slugs, I discovered them around 8 o'clock tonite so running out and getting radio active nuclear slug busters was not an option, I ran downstairs, jumped on DG and found the quick solution of salt, so here I was running around with a sea-salt grinder!! (All I had, didn't think seasoned salt was an option), I wear out my hands grinding the salt and what happens? We have another rain storm!!! It shook the house it was so bad! My containers are a swimmin!!! I had to rescue a Geranium the other day that was doing the back stroke!! I can go fishing in the back yard!! ( I hereby invite all to the International Carp Fishing festival) Arghhhhhhhhh!
BTW ~ can one get slugs in containers? And if so, then what do I do??

OK, I feel better now, I have vented!!

The rain however has made this container of home grown tropical plants grow like mad!!
