You can slither .....but you can't hide....

Is there any reason for slugs and snails?

I mean, apart from to annoy gardeners?

They get into the most irritating places, whether its up the fence panels or near the top of the apple tree...

 

or right down low next to the base of the daffodil leaves...

I wish I could see some beauty in them.... they come in so many colours...

Stripy tigers....

Humbugs....

Or marbled yellow and white ones...

There are teeny weeny tiny ones...

And some monsters, that frankly, you don't need many chips with...

No matter what shape, size or colour they all seem to be peskily good at camouflage and hiding...

But no matter how fast they slither....

Or how many daffodil leaves they hurdle...

or how often they try to distract me by sending a friend off in another direction...

They all eventually meet the same fate...

The fabric conditioner bottle of DOOM!

The lid is perfectly shaped for scoop and dump...

And there is no escape from the bottle of DOOM

 




Even when you send the cute little one out first, I can not be suckered into letting anyone go...

Once the bottle of DOOM is full the lid goes on and off it goes to the bin

So you see...in my garden...you can slither but you can't hide!!
