Slug Slime On House Siding

 

 

 Slugs cause problems in gardens but they can also cause problems for homeowners.

If the slugs are crawling on just the lower area of the house that is easily accessible, a pail of water with vinegar works just as well as it does when washing hands after picking slugs off plants in the garden.

With a hand spray bottle spray white vinegar onto the slug trails. Then take a hose or power sprayer and hose it off.
