forest of dean redneck 11,535 Posted May 15, 2016 Report Share Posted May 15, 2016 No it dries very quickly,I think it was a sewage plant years ago,if not there was one near by an old timer told me.it's near the river Wye, and before I took it on it flooded 2013 I think . Lot of stone the end the runners are to. My back garden at home which is other end of town is built on water meadow /old flood plain, and is clay soil ,so in winter my lawn dies due to water logged,and after week of sun you get cracks you can put your hand down , I'm ripping what's left of my lawn and putting poly down then gravel on top .

LaraCroft 863 Posted May 16, 2016 Report Share Posted May 16, 2016 Jok - thank you - have done the wiping. I now smell like my truck - good luck the people I have to treat in A/E at work tonight ! Maybe it will work for them as well as slugs, and I will have a quiet one. Fingers crossed !Jok forgot to tell you it only works with red diesel It was, but I freely admit that it was more luck ( and availability ) than judgement on my part. Slug numbers are greatly reduced. I might have to syphon another gallon pay for red diesel from my neighbours tractor again. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
