To echo Jeff - this is why I really like this list - there's a wealth of
info here.
I've not noticed any difference in the effectiveness of the products but
then again, I don't have major slug problems (touch wood). But to be
recommended by Jerry Baker - and to have me doing it - that's almost
enough to make me cringe and swear off the stuff all by itself. :-))
Looks like I have some reading to do next week. Thanks for the info
sharing folks!
Doug
