sheesh , way easier just not to put the leaves there.

But it's always something.

This year instead of growing regular sized tomatoes I foolish grew a lot
of "cherry" tomatoes as well. Damn squirrels got to most of them.

Too late now but I will be trapping and relocating them next week.



I rarely have much problem with slugs because of leaf mulch, but when I
do have slugs I put out an organic slug bait at the base of the plants I
see the slugs eating, and sprinkle some on the outer parameters of the
area too.




When I have a slug problem I use diatomaceous earth

Put a little salt on them.
