 All About Slugs and Snails
Slugs and snails are in the Mollusks class of Gastropoda, which is the second largest class in the animal kingdom (the largest class is insects). Snails cause the same damage to plants that slugs do. The start of “slug and snail season” is at that beginning of spring and ends in early fall. Most people are not aware of the extent of their slug and snail problems because these mollusks are nocturnal and feed in cycles. | | | FAQs about Slug and Snails and Their Control Q: The plants in our garden have holes in the leaves, but I
never see anything eating them. Could it be slugs or snails? A: It easily could be. Slugs and snails are nocturnal so you most likely won’t see them unless you want to get up during the night and go out to your garden with a flashlight. 
Q: How can I tell if I have slugs and snails? A: An indicator of a slug or snail infestation is the slimy, mucous trail left behind. It’s very shimmery when dried and can be seen on plants and on the ground. Q: Don’t birds eat slugs? They look like really small fat worms! A: Birds don’t eat slugs because, well, to put it simply, they taste horrible! Q: What can I use to control the slugs and snails that are
killing my plants? A: Dr. T’s™ Slug & Snail Killer is a highly effective, safe method of controlling slugs and snails.
