   Hi there.   
   Can anyone give me suggestions how to avoid these uuuugly animals   
   eating mushrooms?   
   Slughunting with a torch at night has been tried.   
   Trying to get them drunk on beer has been tried.   
   Electrical fence operated on 2 9-volt batteries did not work   
      
   Am trying to suggest solutions for my African friends who are going to   
   have outdoor oyster mushroom bags.   
      
   It must be cheap since I am talking about rural areas.   
      
   We had a constant fight with the slugs while we were cultivating   
   mushrooms in Africa.   
      
   Now i remember that we also had to fight  small mosquitos (like banana   
   flies). We tried decoctions of chrysantemum flowers, teas, planting   
   tagetes flowers etc. Some strains of pleurotus o. seemed to be more   
   desirable for the insects than others.   
      
   Any suggestions are welcome - i am sure i will get very strange   
   answers from some of you people - so just go ahead.
