First the good news..our little dog is home , doing fine and the tail is wagging again .
Then the bad news..I,ve been noticing sluggy snail trails on some of my cacti .
What is going on here ? !! How can a snail walk over a prickly cactus ?
I couldn't find it either.so it has slithered on , walked about and then slithered off and away again !
..and then I noticed this ! It has walked on , slithered over the top of it and eaten out just the growing tips ! Now I,m really annoyed ! Can I find the little nuisance .... no ...it has gone and is probably in hiding..waiting to come back again later .
It's not a very good idea to eat my cacti Mr Snail ! Some of my cacti are hallucinogenic !
O.k so I'll get a grip now ! I,ll have to put a couple of slug pellets into the pots . This has really spoiled the look of the plant..it will probably put out lots of new shoots or pups now , which is wonderful that it can do that and it will take some time to recover ...but ...... I am so annoyed !
What a **** have you managed to get it yet? Maybe a little pot of beer close by will attract it?
