Title: goodness me! garlic!
Post by: legless on February 05, 2004, 17:25:59

so in true 'i'm putting no nasty chemicals on my veg' fashion i started brewing an anti slug garlic concoction.

soaked 10 cloves of garlic in water for a week and a half and had a rather surprising result.......


.....its eaten through the plastic container  :o

think it needs diluting before use  :D

I too have been thinking about a garlic concotion, given that the garlic granules are very expensive. You can buy garlic powder from the supermarkets- maybe this could be mixed in with soap flakes or something that would absorb garlic smell and hopefully last a while?

Well, if it doesn`t kill the slugs it should at least keep the vandals away for a bit!
