That sounds good. I had heard of the beer cure, but throught evaporation and rain would make that effort futile. I will look for ways to make a trap that is protected from weather.
The slugs are very happy in the high grass. Seems to make sense that keeping surrounding grass short or elementating it all together with mulch, would improve the situation? I picked out 8 while working in the garden today. I am really concerned as much of the surrounding area isn't going to be cared for.
Turlte, I have an alcoholic, homeless friend who has expressed interest in helping in the garden. I am curious to see if this helps him in important ways, like self esteem and motivation to clean up a little bit. I need to carry these thoughts to the social science forum.
