    I'm just picturing Slug Hunter shirtless, wearing a headband. Then crunch, a flexing of their muscle's and shouting " I HAVE THE POWER!". 

    On a serious note as frustrating as slugs and snails are I don't kill them, they are only doing what is natural to them. When I've accidentally stood on them I always feel bad.

    The thread's best ignored now - then the WUM will disappear down the page, and into the ether....
    Of course - we could all be wrong, and @jadejacob219 may have lots of pearls of wisdom to add to the forum  :)

    I guess it depends which you prefer. I prefer plants to snails.
