Description

Most scientists are not gardeners, and most gardeners are not scientists, and very few scientist-gardeners have a background in the ecology of decomposition along with a deep interest in environmental toxicology. This fortunate combination of skills and knowledge has prepared ecologist and gardener Jo Kirby uniquely to write a gardening book about slugs, full of practical advice on how to work with the slugs and snails in your garden and prevent them destroying your plants – without the use of harmful, and often ineffective pesticides. You will discover how slugs and snails – as well as insects and wildlife – can be a gardener’s secret weapon. Laid out in an easy-to-follow manner with sound advice on how to achieve a resilient garden, this timely book will change the way you think about your garden – and your slugs!
