So my Hostas are peeping out already...

And the slugs and snails are lining up to have a nice little munch on them!

So what are your favorite remedies for this horrible invasion of my hostas??? I have used some slug pellets, but they are still coming...I have also heard about coffee grounds, I might try that. Any other ideas???

we always put cups of beer out and the slugs would crawl into them and then drown.

Also, salt is no good for them, maybe you can put salt around your plants and they wont cross the line.
