Slugs love beer even more than college students at a frat party. In fact, they’re attracted to the yeast and sugar in cheap lager. Set up a shallow dish—like a yogurt lid—and fill it with a dollar-store beer. Bury it so the rim is level with the ground, and wait. They’ll crawl in, get wasted, and drown in a boozy grave.
The surprising fact: slugs can’t tell the difference between pricey craft beer and a cheap can of Pabst Blue Ribbon. So save your money. They’re not connoisseurs; they’re just hopeless alcoholics who smell fermentation from half a garden away. Change the beer every two days, or it turns into slug soup.
