If the slugs have settled in a personal plot, they can subsequently fill the entire area and their removal will be a very difficult task.

Gardeners share simple, inexpensive, and effective methods to control these pests.

One such remedy is the 10% ammonia solution. It is useful in cases where chemical preparations do not give the desired result. In addition, it can be used on site during picking.

To prepare this remedy, dissolve 3 tablespoons of ammonia in 1 liter of water and treat the areas where the slugs are concentrated. The action of this product is based on the fact that slugs do not tolerate strong odors. When the solution comes into contact with their bodies, it can cause severe burns and death.

Another effective way is to use beer. Place some dandelion leaves in plastic cups, then fill them with beer to the top and bury them in the ground, where slugs are most active. The slugs are attracted to the smell of beer and climb on glasses, where they eat dandelion and are poisoned by beer.
