Slug wars

My copper tape has arrived at last, but not before the loss of two tomato plants, three
fuschia seedlings and two pots of violas. Mind you, the loss of some of the violas was probably
my fault, in that I was a bit heavy handed with the salt. Apparently, slugs don't like copper as it reacts with their slime and gives them electric shocks. That will put slug psychiatrists out of business!
