I did a little more searching and this bottle trap claims to be far more effective. Also watch the embedded video. That's a hardcore gardener there! https://www.earth-ways.co.uk/resources/slugs/ -

Moving from the obs thread. -
Try a frisbee with some beer set in the ground. They love it and drown.

Just my opinion, but you can spray weed killer now on any warm, calm day. I'd use a one or two gallon tank sprayer and the concentrated Ortho Weed-b-gon that you have to mix yourself. Just be sure to get the stuff that is safe for lawns and does not say "weed and grass killer." Creeping Charlie is pretty stubborn and will probably take a couple of applications, but you can get rid of it. Aerating (if possible) and seeding around Labor Day is perfect for this area. If you get plenty of sun, I'd go with a tall fescue.

You also get a lot of root growth throughout the winter which is probably the most important thing for new grass in our summers.

47 and clear. Perfect morning.

My power came back on about an hour ago. The sump pump well is drained, the ice cream looks okay and is refrozen, the house is cooled down, and the fermenting beer was held at a great temperature, so bring it on. But hopefully I don't lost power again!- 2,802 replies

Thanks. It was pretty funny that I thought the storm was going north into your area, and then instead, it expanded south. And even funnier that I downplayed it until all heck broke loose. It kept intensifying as it went east of me and I hear the White Marsh and Perry Hall got hit pretty bad, and maybe even a tornado in Perry Hall? For me, my biggest concern is that I had just finished brewing and was putting the beer in the fermenter when the storm hit. I use an old chest freezer to control my fermentation temperature, and without power, it's a little tough! Beer concerns > property concerns.- 2,802 replies

Still no power in our hood from last night's storm. I've been living here for 15 years and this is the longest we've ever gone without power. Interestingly, BGE "updated" our grid last fall. Probably a coincidence, but it makes me wonder.- 2,802 replies

As soon as I said that storm here was typical, it went nuts. Hail, gusty winds and sheets of rain. No power since- 2,802 replies

We got into the warning here with lots of thunder and lightning, heavy rain, and gusty winds. Fairly typical, at least here.- 2,802 replies

Getting a few rumbles of thunder and outflow breezes, but probably going to get missed by this next one. Mappy should get her second storm of the day..- 2,802 replies

It cooled down temperatures too. May only be a brief respite but better than nothing. Hopefully it holds together to give your yard a nice drenching.- 2,802 replies

The small line forming over me is putting down a decent downpour. Just some low rumbling thunder, but should only get better for areas northeast of me.- 2,802 replies

By the way, I think the high rise in that photo is Kenny's Columbia apartment building. He wasn't kidding yesterday when he said that the funnel went right over his house. Unfortunately, he wasn't there yesterday.- 2,802 replies

Those may be real shots that were spruced up through Lightroom. Also, big, wide angle lenses distort photos, especially on the edges, so it would make sense that the photos above look somewhat "rounded." I have no opinion on whether they are real or not. I'm still mad that the "enhanced" area got gypped.- 2,802 replies

A few rumbles of thunder, gusty winds, and heavy downpour here, but oddly enough, the LWX radar didn't show anything above my location.- 2,802 replies
