CARPETS OF BLUE
It being a gorgeous afternoon we ventured out with the dog for a short walk and werestunned to see such amazing displays of snowdrops everywhere -- and then horrified by a local garden which had more SLUG PELLETS than snowdrops or anything else for that matter .
These things are killers and a hedgehog dies just as painfully from a slug that has eaten a so called animal friendly pellett as it does from a nasty cheap blue one and THERE IS NO WAY BACK for apoisoned slug or bird for that matter
Now WHY slug pellets are used at all is up to individulas consciences but ITS FEBRUARY FOLKS --SNOW IS FORECAST it was minus five this morning !!!!!MOST slugs /insects arent even around --PLEASE DONT USE THEM ATALLL .our hedgehog population is in dire staits as it is -- you can tellhow mad I am --sorry but it s so depressing as all our hard work can go to nothing just by a scattering of these awful things --RANT OVER AND OUT
