Slughs

At night, by the light of a headlamp, you can see them in great crowds pulsating all over the compost bin. We've got slugs and they are eating and rotting out my radishes. I'm all for a healthy backyard ecosystem, but I think we're overrun.

Some Magic Hat #9 in a couple cat food tins did in about 8 of them. Perhaps it had too many hops for those slugs that prefer a domestic, macro-brewed pilsner.
We'll try something a little more conventional and economical in the future.
