>>slugs & snails
setting a shallow tin of stale beer flush with the soil is another good trap. they love the smell of yeast, fall in and drown. it is necessary to clean it out daily....
also, diatomaceous earth (agricultural grade - not swimming pool stuff) is non-toxic but has lots of sharp edges. sprinkle on / around - the slugs/snails glide over the d.e. it cuts up their tootsies and they "bleed" to death.
ducks/geese - they love 'em....

Reason: brain failure on the pool d.e. stuff....
