Can anyone helped?? Since moving into an old Victorian house last year our kitchen has been infested with slugs (mostly on the carpet, but one on a work surface!!!!). We think they are getting in through the gaps under the cupboards so we have used lots of masking tape to seal all the little gaps off (yes, it does look a bit strange!), this worked for about a night, but the little buggers are still getting in and seem to be able to ooze around the tape! Every morning the kitchen carpet is covered in slug trails. We have used slug pellets outside, but can't use them inside as it would make a horrible mess on the carpet and they also smell when you kill them in this way. Have also tried salt and a glass of beer (for the slugs, not us) and both produce rather messy effects. Can anyone help or has anyone had a similar experience. It sounds quite funny, but it is actually really getting me down now and dh and I dream about them every night!
