I can't believe I forgot this.

SLUGS.

They disgust me. One summer, I had a bunch of elephant ears planted in my front bed. Anytime I'd go outside at night, the fuckers were EVERYWHERE. *shudder* They were eating up my elephant ears. I went online to learn how to get rid of them. Apparently, they're attracted to beer. Pour beer in a dish or whatever (I used paper plates,) and they crawl in the plate and drown / dissolve in the beer, as the beer has salt in it. I did this one night, and one night only. When I woke up the next morning, I had plates full of slug mush everywhere. Like, 10-15 dissolved slugs in every plate. It was the nastiest shit ever.

So I don't have elephant ears in the ground anymore. I'm trying them in pots this year.
