I know this is probably a stupid question but........

Can I put the slugs and snails that have drowned (happily I am sure) in the beer traps that I put out onto the bird table for the birds or is that a no-no?

They say that the body is made up of 90% water... so.. I say "I'm not fat - I'm just waterlogged''

Amo Head Gardener You can take me out of my garden but you can't take my garden out of me.

Probablly go down well on a Friday night in the local city centre. ;D Come up again well a bit later though.
