Anti Slug and Snail Experiment

Following postings about slugs and snails and copper wire etc., I am performing some experiments which gardeners, (that does not include me, I am a non gardener, 'her outdoors' is the gardener) might like to follow.

One of the pictures shows a slug which is reluctant in going over the copper wire.

Other pictures are self explanatory .

The three pots of beans are now under the tender care of 'her outdoors' in her greenhouse. Once the plants show above the compost, they will be placed in a 'vulnerable' position outdoors where the slugs and snails seem to frequent.

Watch this space.

Be delighted to answer any questions.

The Cathodic/Electrolytic Action experiment with two dissimilar metals round a pot may follow later.

Uh, the slug appears to be "in" the raised garden. Maybe he is reluctant to leave a free lunch. In the picture with the copper tape, there is no plant to attract the slugs or did they already eat it?;-)
