Tastes like chicken...


Well frenchies eat snails and they are similarly squidgy so give them a go with some creamy pasta.

Pouring salt on them is fun

Ah it's slugs? Thank god. I thought the missus was dragging herself along the floor with no bottoms on again.

AnonoBoy

They're tired of putting up with ordinary broadband so they've come top yours for proper wi-fi reception?

Can't say I'd be temped to eat them but I'm considering getting a gat and taking pleasure of firing them against the wall.

Pour salt on them.

Princess Consuela Bananahammock

A nice cup of tea.

Richard Dower

Nothing better then putting one of them slimey gits in the fire....ahhh, to hear them sizzle and then......POP!

BOHtox

Slugs are snails that sold their home for drug money!!

I had this problem a few years ago when I was renting in London. Every night, especially during cold, damp weather, you would find Suggs downstairs in the shared kitchen. We tried everything, pouring salt on him did nothing. We had to move in the end, it was madness.

Poor Graham... I bet he didn't like getting salt poured on him while singing Cecilia

Oh Cecilia you're breaking my heart....:pac:

Quick question: What's a "gat"?

Rheo

About 2 weeks ago I saw one make its way across my living room floor. I was tempted to be all like "I want to play a game" but my heart just wasn't black enough.

Prick!

Drink I think.

Slugs come round to eat things.

Wash your floor!

A gat is a gun. Slang.

Check the drain underneath the sink they could be coming up from there if its not sealed properly.

I once entered my snail into a snail race but it was too slow so i took its shell off. That didnt work, it just made it sluggish.

Please elaborate.

I'm interested to see where/how you draw the line that defines which creatures it's ok to cause to suffer and which are not.

Ah right. Sorry about that. I thought getting a gun to get rid of some slugs was a bit extreme but then again I use a rocket launcher to kill the mice in my house.

Well I say "house" but it`s more of a hole in the ground now...there was a lot of mice last winter.

Capt'n Midnight

leave out beer for the slugs

heisenburger

A gat is a gun guys... A slingshot wouldnt be very gangster! A quick google tells me that its prohibition era slag for a gun, originally coming from Gatling gun.

just sit back and watch them leaving, this will show you how they get in.

DaveSuarez

I've never seen a slug indoors!

humbert

I put my jeans on one morning and there was something wet against my thigh, jeans came of like they were on fire and inside I found a big black bastard slug.

I'd been outside killing them the night before so I took this as a declaration of war and in all probability an attempt on my life.

They're looking for biscuits, slugs love 'em. Try feeding a fig roll to a slug, they'll tear into it and the chomping sound is unreal.

fcuk sake ,,, no need for making me paranoid now..

Bloody loose threads ..

Murt10

A small leak under the sink/dishwasher etc. is all they need

Ideal place to live warm, dark and moist. Then at night, out they come and feed on the food crumbs that you have on the floor or wherever. If the are round the sink they can even climb up onto the draining board and have a snack on anything you might be defrosting.

At least you don't have Silverfish

An apartment I lived in for a while had loads of the little bastards.. You'd go to the loo at night and see them scurrying under the skirting boards..

They're a HOOR to get rid of :mad: Needless to say I didn't stay there long.

gozunda

Slugs....

BillyMitchel
