Thank you everyone, what fascinating replies. So the slugs actually throw themselves in the beer? Ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww I did not know that. i thought they just drank it then went off tipsy somewhere else other than the precious veg.
Egg shells and coffee grounds sound brilliant (and free) I will definitely be trying those two. Also the idea of French Marigolds to protect the veggies is a great one. I think I have heard about that one before, but I have never heard of the spinach amongst strawberries. I wonder what the dynamics of that one is? Do they eat the spinach instead of the strawberries.
What about the use of salt? Or would that be very bad for the crops if it got onto or into the soil? Another one is seaweed, presumably that is salty but would they slime over it, someone said not, but I just dont know.
Thanks so much to everyone for all your tips and comments, what a brilliant Forum.
