Found four huge slugs on one Rhubarb plant this morning not sure why they have picked on just the one.  They were a good six inches long and one was even longer.  Now very dead.

I have got a lot more relaxed about slugs, only killing the keel slugs which attack potatoes. I usually chuck them onto the compost heap to get noshing.
Snails though.....

In the last couple of days I have noticed a few odd Spanish slugs about for the first time since I have lived here (3 years). I am hoping the leopard slug population will sort them out.
