Garden Slugs

Post by xvCODY »

I tried finding the original thread but the search for the forums is still a little screwy. Just wanted to make sure it IS ok to feed random garden slugs to my puffer. The apartment complex i live in doesn't use any form of pesticides. I'd probably freeze them first to prevent parasites.

I think that depends on soil quality, water quality of the rain, if you use pesticides etc. I personally wouldn't in any case.

+1.
If it were your own home in the woods or something, then it would be ok. But you don't know about the surrounding areas. I've never actually heard of an apartment complex not using pesticides. Bugs normally deter people from renting.
