Damn things ate of all my pins overnight. Bought some non-toxic killer that causes the nasty critters to stop eating and DIE!!!!

thanks I will try that as well... the organic slug killer seems to be working tough. I see no more damages or slugs. It shocked me how fast they appeared....overnight.

Do you actually see the slugs or do you just know they were there because your mushrooms have been chomped on?

Pennies don't work. You need copper wire.

Don't spray pesticides on your mushrooms, even if it says it's non-toxic. It's just not needed.

There's no real way to completely beat them. Just make bigger or more patches.

Honest question. Everyone always complaining about slugs in their outdoor grows and I've never actually seen one. I do occasionally find some mushrooms that look like they've been partially eaten though.

I agree with the copper wire. They fuckin hate copper.  Build a small raised enclosure out of 2x4's or 1x2's or whatever you can get your hands on.  Get'm about a half inch into the dirt, and line the perimeter top with some copper wire.  Works great for all gardens...especially the really green ones:thumbup:

It should be copper tubing.  It has to be big enough that they won't crawl over it.

Most damage to mushroom caps comes from squirrels, so make sure you're after the right creature.

I always just twisted up a few pieces of copper wire. But yeah, that's a good point.

IDK about that. My gf's dog kept animals out of my yard pretty damn well and I would catch slugs eating my caps all the time.

Well obviously the dog didn't help with slugs, but I had no squirrels, cats, possums, skunks, etc in my yard.
