This year I grew some beautiful morning glories, moonflowers and black eyed susans using my porch banisters as a trellis. I sized and built the planter trays from scratch, I installed an automatic watering line with each partition havig its own mini sprinkler.
It looks picutreseque cottage core. Vines grow up and around the porch, pretty mixtures of flowers…
I killed so many slugs… so many goddamn fuckyouslugs (and beetles, fuckyoujapanesebeetles) to make it happen…
Dunno about your neck of the woods, but here, if you find a Japanese Beetle, you should capture and turn it in (the English translation is only partial).
I toss the slugs out of the yard, but mostly because Sluggo and other suggestions seem only to have emboldened the slugs further as the years progress.

They’re not just a pest, but a menace.
