Yes,

I heard it cuts there slimy underbelly as they crawl over it.

I have interlocking pavers that retain white gravel then 24 inch high raised garden beds.

Hundreds of little slimy trails going across the pavers (they shine during the day) no slug problems in my garden patch.

You can buy them in a pellet form and shake them on a perimeter - they keeps the slugs out.

Work great.

Bob

I don't usually get bug or ant bites, but some small unseen bug or ant bit me on the foot today while we were spending time out in the wild...

Why spend even those few bucks on those store bought remedies when they have only a minimal amount of any active ingredients???

If you notice on all of those store bought remedies, the active ingredient is ammonia...

So, why not take a cotton ball and wet it with some common household ammonia from your pantry and dab it onto the bite... the itch or sting disappears immediately... and it only costs you a few cents, if that...
