Since when did bastard slugs eat hyacinths?

[ArseInTheCoOpWindow]

Or other bulbs. I’ve grown these before! Planted loads in Autumn to cheer me up now. And chomp chomp chomp.

3 course stake out at the bottom of the garden😢😧

I’m 57. No slug has ever eaten a hyacinth to my knowledge. And they’ve had a go at the grape hyacinths. And even the Tete a tetes! Since when?!🤬

Nematodes are back in stock.....

But why would they eat bulbs? They’ve never done it before!

Yes, that’s not on. grape hyacinths and hyacinths are immune to slugs. Are they eating the leaves or the bulbs? If bulbs, it could be an incursion of any of several four legged predators

The leaves and the buds. What else could it be eating them?

Probably slugs. Possibly sparrows but they usually go for yellow flowers. I f it had been the bulbs it could have been mice, voles, rats, squirrels.

There’s no flowers, all the buds have been chewed. But if they were to flower they’d be pink purple and blue.
