Snails are a major pest problem for me each summer and it just so happens that toads love to eat snails. I sure wish I could clone these guys!

How disgusting, two of the most hated creatures in my nursery are teaming up once again to eat all my Angel Trumpets! Thank goodness I had my trusty scissors with me, and thank goodness that they do not regenerate when cut in half. When the slugs get to be larger than my thumb like the one below, it's time to bring out the slug bait! Perfect timing too, it will be their Thanksgiving dinner!
