    Slugs. Usually tiny black ones. Try a slug pub with beer in nearby.

    Won’t that just encourage them @fidgetbones ... a pint of Adnams,  a bowl of fresh radishes and some seasalt ... the ultimate bar snack eh @punkdoc? 😋

    Sounds good to me @Dovefromabove, although pork scratchings would also be nice.

    Thanks all - yes I suspected little slugs. I used Nemotodes earlier in the year but I put the pack in the fridge and I think it froze and the little mites died.
    anyways i’ll try a beer-trap.
    Cheers

    You’re supposed to keep them in the fridge, they stay dormant then.
