I know! What I find scary though is that if these welsh slugs reproduce at the same rate as bog-standard slugs then they will soon be taking over the garden! I wonder if they are immune to slug pellets too?  |

I wondered how long it would be before they spread out of Wales. It will only take a few eggs in a plant pot transferred to another part of the country..... |

Remember all the fuss about the New Zealand flatworm that ate our earthworms? Despite finding one in my own garden, and being in a blind panic, nothing dreadful happened, and everyone has forgotten all about them. Maybe the samewill happen to the ghost slug too.
Don't panic Cpt. Mainwaring.

They do breed pretty fast and have a tendancy to get in the way of things ;D I assume that's your sisters OH you're commenting on rather than the slug Steve  Found the link to the National Museum of Wales where you can get the download of the identification chart and who to notify if you see one of these (ghost slug that is, not Steves BIL ;D) www.museumwales.ac.uk/en/news/?article_id=440x Tig |
