Oh nice! No trouble with snails? I simply cannot have homegrown strawberries because snails and slugs get to them first.
None that I've seen so far
Lucky you! Bon apetit!
So we had this problem, and a plate/shallow saucer filled with beer placed in the bed with the strawberries will help. Slugs/snails will go for the beer instead of the strawberries and consequently get drunk and drown.
Haha, I've done this before. That was gross! There are far too many snails tho.
