On my Hostas & leafy flowers I have lots of tiny bite holes. I have purchased Diazanon, Sevin and Ortho and nothing is working. I'm spending money and loosing flowers. PLEASE HELP!!!!

Answer
Hi Carolyn,
Thanx for your question.  It sounds like you have slugs.  There are a variety of ways to control slugs as listed below in the link I'm giving you.  Slugs become more common when there has been a lot of rain.  You can attract them by placing boards or even orange peels under which they will hide.  Pick them up in the morning and get rid of them.  There are tons of things you can do.
