Are they the lightish brown Spanish Armada variety or the typical UK black dog turd type? *shudders*

Not to the extent you have seen, but still more in the garden than we've noticed in other years.

We planted a pot of Parsley which was decimated. The replacement is surrounded by wire (in case it was a 4 footed felon) and slug pellets. Every morning up to a dozen have been nuked :-D

I used to put leftover cat food out for hedgehogs. Slugs would gather to eat some as well so the hedgehogs had a starter and a main course.
