Hi - I have read that as well as beer in slug traps, grape juice & milk work too. Has anyone tried this? Any thoughts?

Milk most certainly does attract slugs. I used to be a milkman and the empty bottles would be full slugs. That was grim!

Worm milkshake anybody? :o
The milk may attract rats, mind you, they probably like a pint of beer too. ::)

I've just put some slightly off milk in a cut off bottle in the poly to try it, someone on here says wait until it's SOLID before throwing it in the compost heap..worth a try !! ;D
