I need to kill

................or at least get rid of the slimy slug or snail that's residing in my lounge!!

Every morning over the past few weeks, I've noticed a slimy trail, at the base of one of my sofas. I've had a peek under and around the sofa, but can't spot anything. TBH, I've not really thoroughly searched for it 'cause I know I'll run a mile if I find it.

If I leave the light on all night, it obviously doesn't come out. But I know its there and I want it out.

Any suggestions to get rid of my very unwelcome spineless guest?

Trap a blackbird in your house, they eat molluscs. Alternatively, buy a ton of salt and cover everything in it.

Whatever you do, don't step on it in your bare feet. Not nearly as pleasant as you might think.

If you have no pets....
Snailbait!

I have one (or more) of them. They come out at night so what you have to do is get up at 4am before they go back to their hiding place.

My electrics tripped and I couldn't find out what the problem was. I traced it to one wall socket, took the front off and found a small electrocuted slug between the terminals.

Anyone know what kind of slug poison to use if you have cats in the house?

i could come round and hunt it down for you

Easy, tiger.

get a dish of lager and leave it in your lounge over night they are ment to be attracted to it and then drown in it.

Have to make sure that once theyre in the dish they can get out again, a glass is better

they cant stick in liquid (can they)?
