i would suggest that putting food out for the birds encourages them when you need them most ....... like now when theres loads of slugs, and if you feed them now, they are less likely to eat your crops ........ i put all the slugs and snails i find in a large flat dish, with vaseline and salt round the edge ...... then they stay around looking for more ...... if you don't put food out for them, they will find someone who does
if you use the grapefruit thing ..... what do you do with the grapefruit, do they eat that or just the skin? cos i hate grapefruit
