Are there lots of electric slugs in your area? :-)

Can slugs swim? Wondering if a moat around the garden would achieve
the same end but maybe have less maintenance requirements (given
need for watering plants anyway)?


Yes, they can swim, sort of.
I dropped one in the toilet, which had made its way indoors through
a hole in the wall. It managed to wiggle to the side and then climb
up the porcelain. It held on tightly enough to resist flushing.


One of them highly trained Ninja Slugs.
