   Extractions: @import "/styles/coopext_adv.css"; no. 5.515 by W.S. Cranshaw Slugs are one of the most destructive and difficult pests to control. Seedlings of many vegetables and flowers are favored foods, and high populations of slugs can cause difficulties in establishing a crop. Slugs also feed on many fruits and vegetables prior to harvest. This preharvest feeding results in wounds that allow various fungi and bacteria to enter and spoil the crop. In addition, the slime trails produced by slugs can contaminate garden produce. Slug injury is sometimes difficult to diagnose because slugs hide during the day. Smaller leaves may be eaten entirely, while only the edges of larger leaves may be consumed. Thick leaves often are rasped from the leaf underside. The presence of slime trails often is the best indication of slug activity. Figure 1: Slugs feeding on broccoli.

"feeding on plants and a pest of leafy garden crops" Adopt a CyberSlug Keeping Slugs and Snails as Pets I've always been fascinated with slugs. Well, that's not entirely true. When I was two years old, my family was camping in the Coast Range, which we did all the time. I was playing on a log near the campsite when I started screaming bloody murder and scared the heck out of my mom, who thought I had encountered a bear (black bears were still common around there), when really I had spotted a large banana slug sliming its way along the decaying wood. That was the only time I ever feared slugs. Love of slugs is often considered odd. Frankly, though, slugs are fascinating. The most common slug around here and where I go camping is the banana slug. They are aptly named, long, olive green creatures. Some of them are more yellow or more green, and some sport varying amounts of black spots. They can grow to be very large. The CyberSlugs are based on this species.

6. Snails And Slugs Management Guidelines--UC IPM
   UC home and landscape guidelines for control of Snails and slugs.  
   http://www.ipm.ucdavis.edu/PMG/PESTNOTES/pn7427.html
   
   Extractions: Snails and slugs are among the most bothersome pests in many garden and landscape situations. The brown garden snail (Helix aspersa) is the most common snail causing problems in California gardens; it was introduced from France during the 1850s for use as food. Several species of slugs are frequently damaging, including the gray garden slug (Agriolimax reticulatus), the banded slug (Limax marginatusi), the tawny slug (Limax flavus), and the greenhouse slug (Milax gagates). Snails and slugs move by gliding along on a muscular "foot." This muscle constantly secretes mucus, which later dries to form the silvery "slime trail" that signals the presence of either pest. Slugs and snails are hermaphrodites, so all have the potential to lay eggs. Adult brown garden snails lay about 80 spherical, pearly white

   Extractions: David J. Shetlar Slugs are simply snails (mollusks) without shells. These slimy creatures live in and on the ground and have big appetites for a wide variety of plants found around the home. Young seedling plants are eaten as well as mature plants. They frequently cause damage to glasshouse (greenhouse) and garden plants, and may be especially injurious in mushroom houses. Occasionally, they may congregate in large numbers in basements, on walls, doorways, and along walkways, making these areas unsightly. Slugs may be found when the ground thaws in the spring until it freezes in the fall. Wet conditions are ideal for slug development. Probably the best description of a slug is that it is a snail without a shell. They vary in size depending upon the species and measure from 1/4 to seven inches long. They secrete a characteristic slime (mucus) which they leave behind as they move around. These slime trails are silvery in appearance upon drying and is a common diagnostic character used to identify the presence of slugs. The color of slugs also varies with species, ranging from a dark black-brown to an orange color. When an actual slug is found their soft slimy bodies and extensible eye stalks give the creature its characteristic appearance. The most common slugs found in Ohio landscapes are the gray garden slug, the leopard slug, and the dusky slug. The gray garden slug is the most common and is generally a mottled gray to black in color. It is usually less than one inch long. The leopard slug is the largest, commonly reaching four to five inches in length. It has characteristic black spots on its upper surface. The dusky slug is intermediate in size, being one to three inches long, and can range from a gray to a bright orange in color.

See, this anime stuff really happens! More importantly, what if he was blind? Would Tasha be allowed on then, as a seeing eye girl By Kabitzin Posted in Random Stuff Share This Comments (8) From Bateszi I like recommending anime, telling people when something is worth watching; it’s taken me nearly two years to understand that about myself and this site, but I can only say “this is good” so many times. Much like web forums, episodic blogs are more about in-depth commentary and discussion; simultaneously, they attract hardcore fans, but alienate those like me, people looking for broader and opinionated reviews that draw on more than a measly 20 minutes worth of stilted animation. Episode reviews are great from a fans perspective, but they sure make the anime blogging community insular and inaccessible to outsiders. May be they are better off being discarded as things of the past and placed where they belong, on series-specific forums, instead? I have to admit that I am so easily baited by these ES vs. E debates, because bloggers that focus on episode summaries usually do not respond to the criticisms leveled by bloggers that focus on editorials. Here are a few things I would like to point out:
