  • Never before

    Never before have I had snugs lay their eggs in a bag of compost! I've had to sieve it through my fingers and squish loads of the darn things. If you spread them out on a tray and leave them in the sun, they dry out to white grit. Love it

    I have had that before but at the time I didn't know what the eggs were so left them. I now know what they are

      I'm just glad I spotted them Andy - I was pricking out seedlings into modules. They wouldn't have stood a chance! My daughter said "Ooh aren't they pretty? Like little pearls" I can't tell you what I said.

              The bag was folded in and a heavy weight was on top, so how the little blighter had got in I really don't know!

                i think that must have happened to me because loads of my seedlings were eaten in their pots even tho they were nowhere where a slug or snail could crawl to them

                  Maybe you got a free gift when you bought the compost, FF?!
                  Is there anything that isn't made better by half an hour pottering in the veg patch?
